Can you answer Lottery’s question about Inkjets?:
I purchased some 28lb inkjet paper for a color newsletter I am doing and I realized when I got home that I had picked up laser paper instead. Should I take it back or do you know whether or not it would work on a two-sided color newsletter on a HP DeskJet 970 Cse? Thanks in advance for your help.

Inkjets Feedback: yes
Inkjets Feedback: Yes you can. I use plain paper in my ink jet all the time.
The only exception is if I am printing pictures then I use photo paper.
The only thing you might want to give it a little extra drying time before you print the second side.
Inkjets Feedback: YOU CAN USE IT, CHANCES ARE IT MIGHT BE FOR POHOT PURPOSES AND IT MAY BE GLOSSY PAPER, OR IT MAY BE FINE.
Inkjets Feedback: I have used 28lb paper through my Cse all the time with no issues.. It well hold less paper due to thickness but I have never had a problem. Regardless of what it has said on the package I have use inkjet, laser and copier papers with no problems
Inkjets Feedback: yes…. definitly.
Obviously bear in mind that the paper is engineered for a laser printer, but at the end of the day it’s still paper.
I’m sure you will have no problems as I do this all the time.
Inkjets Feedback: Yes you can, I use any paper even loose-leaf.
Inkjets Feedback: it doesnt really matter it will work either way they just say it for this kind of printer or this kind to charge more for the paper lol. It all pretty much the same.
Inkjets Feedback: yes just do not tell the printer its printing on laser paper - hide the rapper.
Inkjets Feedback: the difference between laser and inkjet is mainly brightness, but the weight of the paper may be a problem 28 lb is much thicker than 20 or 24 lb.but for double sided printing it is a good choice
Inkjets Feedback: you can use laser paper however it is usually more expensive than regular computer paper.
laser paper is usually a heavy bond and therefore a better quality of paper. the ink does not bleed through laser paper either.
good luck

Inkjets Feedback: of course you can, but in you gonna print a picture it will not printout as glossy as photo paper
