Is semi-gloss still unusable, do you think? I ask because I had no idea there were limitations like that when I bought this printer, so I bought a few boxes of Canon semi-gloss photo papers with my printer order.

Is it safe to use Canon Photo Paper Plus Semi-Gloss? Or matte photo paper?</P> Wed, 10 Jan 2024 20:08:08 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Office-Printers/ImageCLASS-MF751Cdw-Can-I-use-Canon-Photo-Paper-Plus/m-p/455791#M21291 deadmeat08 2024-01-10T20:08:08Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Office-Printers/ImageCLASS-MF751Cdw-Can-I-use-Canon-Photo-Paper-Plus/m-p/455796#M21293 <P>This is a business-oriented laser printer. Printers marketed as photo printers are inkjets. All of the recommended papers are uncoated. This is why the manual does not mention photo papers.</P><P>There are gloss-coated laser papers out there. i have some from HP that I got years ago. It's like the glossy paper magazines are printed on.</P><P>Glossy laser papers are not the same thing as gloss inkjet paper. The coating on the gloss and matte&nbsp; inkjet papers can melt or break down&nbsp; from the heat of a laser printer. Not good for the printer.</P><P>If you want high gloss photos you need an inkjet printer.</P> Wed, 10 Jan 2024 20:21:14 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Office-Printers/ImageCLASS-MF751Cdw-Can-I-use-Canon-Photo-Paper-Plus/m-p/455796#M21293 normadel 2024-01-10T20:21:14Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Office-Printers/ImageCLASS-MF751Cdw-Can-I-use-Canon-Photo-Paper-Plus/m-p/455838#M21299 <P>Thanks for the info.</P><P>I really don't care if the photos are glossy, I just want to print some pictures for our family.

Consumer, home-type "Photo printers" are generally inkjets, not lasers.</P><P>Perhaps there's someone out there who can speak to usability of semi-gloss and matte inkjet papers on a laser printer. i have Canon Matte Photo Paper, but I don't want to run it through my laser printer.</P><P>What you CAN use on your laser, which I do, is a smooth finish paper heavier than 20 lb. Look for 28 lb. or 60 lb. papers.</P> Thu, 11 Jan 2024 03:52:05 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Office-Printers/ImageCLASS-MF751Cdw-Can-I-use-Canon-Photo-Paper-Plus/m-p/455868#M21301 normadel 2024-01-11T03:52:05Z
