Best photo paper for my new printer?

7 years 3 months ago #512247 by andrew101
Hi All,

Initially, I might want to thank you for perusing my post. Recently I bought HP Sprocket Photo Printer for photograph printing and I neglected to approach about paper quality for printer. I don't know which photograph paper is reasonable to print astounding photograph pictures.

I require help with respect to this issue, else I have to go for market range which is exceptionally a long way from my town.

I am searching for early answers.

Much appreciated and Regards,

Andrew

I would use the HP recommended paper for that printer. The instructions should have that info....

Why so serious?

You mind me asking what will you be printing mostly?  I bring this up because in my opinion there are better paper to use if you are printing landscapes, or portraits, or scenes with certain colors.  

The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

Have to agree that you should probably stick to the recommended photo paper for the Sprocket. From what I understand, you can't make prints larger that 2 inches by 3 inches, correct? If so, you may find it difficult to find a brand of paper that's NOT associated with the Sprocket...2x3 isn't a size that's traditionally readily available.

As far as buying online, I would just try to find the best deal possible – as long as you stick to a specific brand, the distributor you buy it from shouldn't make too much of a difference. Hope this answers some of your questions.
