thinner paper and normal works best.

Very nice! I have been using 80gsm paper (120gsm didn't work too good) + Inkjet currently, However will try some 100gsm in a few days... looking at getting a laser printer if i'm still not keen on the quality of print.

When you say normal works best Logobear are you referring to normal standard paper or a normal printer as in an inkjet? Thanks

My press recommends 100 gsm paper but I get good results with 80 gsm so I stick with it

80gsm copy paper using both inkjet and laser - both work fine through my badge presses.

Epson bright white inkjet sheets, 90gsm. I also use pre cut paper sheets from Badgematic and laser, sizes are not universal so check diameter(s) if you buy from them.

I found normal paper didn't give as sharp or colourful a print as thin photo glossy or brochure paper.

If I'm doing hundreds/thousands, it'll be the laser printer for speed - for a few off, my Ricoh does the job. I've found little difference in print quality, but that could be due to the gel inks and instant drying!
