The Difference in Paper

I own a HP Photo printer and I love it. But you know when the manufacturer tells you buying their paper really does makes a difference in print quality? Well, you really should heed the warning.

I wanted to print two five-by-seven prints on a piece of 8.5 x 11 paper. Unfortunately, the only paper I had in that size was not HP photo paper; it was Kodak. What a waste of ink! The difference in quality is amazing. I love how the printer works with HP photo paper but it totally sucks with non-HP brands of paper.

Looks like I'm going to have to order some HP photo paper. Now, what do I do with all the Kodak and off-brand photo paper I have laying around? Ideas anyone?

  1. Give it to the kids to draw on. Turn it into a collage and put it on the fridge.

  3. Send it to me? :p I have an HP photo printer (well it also prints photos but it's an all in one thingy) and Kodak paper works just fine with it. I do have to change the settings a little in HP Director. Canon paper does not work, though.

  5. Seriously? Woo hoo! (you must have a LOT of paper!)

    Actually, I don't have your email address anymore. It was in my lyricalmoon account which was shut down for inactivity. I didn't know yahoo did that.

    Anywho- I'm using lolahd@yahoo.com now. If you'll email me, then I can email you....
