Paper settings, IP 3000

Archived from groups: comp.periphs.printers (More info?)

I have 3 kinds of paper for which there is no indication, either on the
printer options (Canon iP3000) or the paper package what settings to apply:
1) Double-sided matt coated inkjet paper (160 gsm), Office World
2) Classic Satin Finish Photo paper (200 gsm) PC World
3) HP double-sided brochure and flyer paper, glossy (160gsm)

My printer options are:

Plain
Photo paper pro
Photo paper plus glossy
Photo paper plus double-sided
Matte photo paper
Glossy photo paper
High res. paper
Other photo paper.

The Epson always did 1) and possibly also 3) best on a 'plain' setting; but
the Canon doesn't seem to get such good result with it.

I wonder if anyone could save me stacks of the paper and advise me - thanks,

J

I think only option is to try and see... for i try Matte option, for 3 try
Glossy photo etc...then you see which one gives best results.
