Inkjet picture paper packaging warn not to use w/laser printers. What paper
would you use with color laser printers for photos?

Thanks

No, I'm trying to make a purchase decision and quality photo printing is one
criteria...

I think you meant "criterion," but let it pass. Laser
printers, dollar for dollar, are not very good at photo
printing, or printing graphics in general. By the same
token, inkjet printers are generally not that great at
printing text--at least not as good as laser printers.

For $150 (or less) you can buy an inkjet printer that will
do photos better than a $1000 laser printer. If I had that
kind of money to spend, I would buy one of each.
 
First, thanks for the observations. I was just wondering if there is any
equivalent "special" paper to improve the quality of photo printing on color
laser printers. This to help with my purchase decision.

As far as my use of the plural criteria, you are right. That's my error. But
you didn't let it pass, did you. You did indeed mention it. I could mention
that good writing technique avoids the use of cliches such as "by the same
token". Perhaps those are your errors. But I won't go any deeper into
it...you took the time to give me some information and I appreciate it.

Take care.
