Don't use plain paper

I just got my Canon i550 printer. I printed out a photo on plain paper, and the quality is very bad. I was so disappointed. I started to doubt people's praises on the Canon printer. Then I bought the Cannon Photo Paper Plus Glossy, and was stunned at the printed result. It's dark room development quality. So I guess it's the combination of the printer and the paper that makes it look good.

Price: 50 cents/page + ink = less than $1/page. The price for 8x10 development on ofoto.com (a Kodak's company) is four times more expensive at $3.99.

Quality: Stunning

Dimension: I don't know why 8.5x11 has become the standard for photo printing. Most frames out there are 8x10. Do I suppose to trim the printout myself?

Borderless: it's almost borderless, but my printer gave me a border of 1/16 inch on the top and right of the paper. I used the A4 size on Canon Photo Print application.

Best paper for Canon printers

I tested my new Canon i960 with a variety of papers. Like most printers, the output is much better when using the manufacture's own paper (as opposed to the cheaper generic paper), but there is no need to buy the most expensive "Pro" paper as neither I nor my wife could discern ANY difference between the two. There may be a benifit to the "Pro" paper that cannot be seen (lasts longer?) but at almost twice the cost it is not worth it - this paper will produce the highest quality prints on your Canon printer (I think they look better than the ones I get from the photo lab).

Lab-quality prints

I have a Canon S300 printer - basically a 2-year-old, fifty dollar printer - and with this paper I get lab quality prints. I can print my 2 megapixel photos at 8x10 size.

With the cost of this paper ($0.50/sheet) plus the ink ($0.50/sheet) coming to $1/sheet, that's not bad for an 8x10. Go for it an impress your grandma.
