Where to get papers

C

Craig

I now have a new Canon i9900 printer.
I would like to test printing pictures on 13 x 19 photo papers.
But I only saw Epson 13 x 19 photopapers but not Canon papers.
Please advise me where to look for papers and also which brand works better
on the Canon printer.

TIA. Craig

The epson papers I've used on my Canon i960 work just fine. You might get a
small pack of the same Epson paper in a smaller format to test.

I can't advise you on brands -- I only use 13x19 prints for CAD drawings, so I
just buy whichever paper is cheapest -- but
http://www.atlex.com/paper-by-size/13x19_inkjet_photo_paper.htm is a good
source to look around at.

Flame on:
It appears you have a printer about which you understand next to nothing
about operating or you woould not pose this question.
I humbly suggest you study color management and printing, along with
Canon's arcane color management protocols, to see what this printer is
acutally capable of producing.
If applicable I strongly suggest your next purchases be Adobe Elements or
Photoshop and the Monaco Optix XR bundle. The latter is so you can produce,
on the cheap, usable custom printer/paper profiles so you can actually use
the 9900 with something other than Canon's pitiful selection of papers (and
dubious canned profiles) with something approaching reasonably predictable
results vis a vis your monitor.
If you already own these, or comparable, products learn how to use the
freaking things.
Flame off.
