How To Print On Real Wood Veneer Paper Sheets
We are often asked which printers we recommend for printing on Real Wood Paper sheets. We offer some basic printing information for both our Professional and DIY Printing customers on our FAQ’s Page.
While we don’t specialize in printing, and it’s impossible for us to test every inkjet and laser printer on the market, we understand the importance of recommending printers compatible with Real Wood Paper for our customers’ convenience.
For our DIY customers, using a straight-through feed laser printer is the best option. However, sourcing such printers with this feature is becoming increasingly challenging in the USA. Consequently, we’ve taken the initiative to test several reasonably priced home and office printers, for more successful DIY printing on Real Wood Veneer Paper Sheets.
Achieving impeccable prints on Real Wood Paper hinges largely on your printer’s capabilities. Although factors like wood sheet thickness and grain direction are pertinent, the printer’s ability to handle thick cardstock-type sheets is equally crucial. We recommend referring to your printer manual to review its unique specifications.
In the samples provided below, you’ll notice all prints are produced on our Short Grain 8.5″ x 11″ Real Wood Paper sheets. Are you wondering why Short Grain over Long Grain? Real Wood Paper has more flexibility when bending with the grain, facilitating smoother passage through the printer’s rollers—an essential consideration in the printing process.
