Paper Recommendations

Postby Anothrworld » Thu Jul 30, 2026 3:23 pm

Can someone please recommend a good inkjet paper for printing covers on? I want something as close to an Arrow Video art insert in terms of gloss and thickness. I have a Canon pixma g620. I’ve tried canon plus semi gloss paper but it too thick, and all the other semi gloss options I’m seeing out there are too thick as well. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

You could take the cover to a local print shop and ask them about the paper it's printed on they will be able to tell you a lot about it by just seeing it.
