Paper Questions
Just a quick question about paper. For those of you that print at home do you use the epson brand 12x12 scrapbooking paper, or are there other brands out there that you use? Also, I wanted to print out some clear 12x12 overlays, but I am not sure where to buy the correct paper. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

I use both Epson and Canon papers, but I trim down to 8x8 using 11x14, which I think I got on sale!

When I did print at home (and still do on rare occasions) I used the 12x12 Epson. I have an Epson printer and have noticed that the print quality is better on Epson paper than others. May be different if you have a different brand of printer.

i use epson premium luster 13x19 and trim down to 12x12 and have leftover for some 5x7's with the trimmings. Premium luster is hands down the best. I have the 12x12 sb paper from epson and i dont care for it.

Erica, check Epson's compatibility guide before you buy it to make sure it's compatible with your printer/inks
 The 12x12 Scrapbook paper is cross-compatible because it's matte.
