Have you used it yourself?

Post #206,906 by Steven A S 5/11/05 10:16:31 AM Reply	Have you used it yourself? I didn't want to buy a lot of paper I might not be able to use without making sure it would work. Does it still have the same gloss when the toner is fused? ~~~)-Steven---- "I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country.

I use glossy all the time...but use it in my Epson Photo 1200. I have used glossy in lasers at work...if the right paper is used it does hold the gloss. The issue I generally have with color laser is dpi...since most color laser is at 600. Not quite good enough for photos If you push something hard enough, it will fall over. _{Fudd's First Law of Opposition} [link\|mailto:bepatient@aol.com\|BePatient]

But I haven't seen any glossy paper marked specifically for laserjets, most if not all have been marked for inkjets. ~~~)-Steven---- "I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country.

Post #207,135 by folkert 5/12/05 2:52:59 PM Reply	Seriously here... Get Astrobrite 95 Glossy paper preferably 48# (glossy is much more dense and therefore heavier) That is an ultra white paper. The main thing is the heat resistance. If you get "printing press" rated glossy stock, it is heat resistant. There fore should work just fine for a laser. Now using Printing Press glossy stock, the inkjet ink pools into runs and bubbles. Looks horrendous. Inkjet Photo paper absorbs the ink, and has little imperfections in it. When the water based inks touch... those imperfections float-together like a ClearCoat on a car. -- [link\|mailto:greg@gregfolkert.net\|greg], [link\|http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry\|REMEMBER ED CURRY!] @ *i_wethey* [image\|http://www.danasoft.com/vipersig.jpg\|\|\|\|]
