Hi! I am new to wrapcandy and have no idea where to begin :-? I guess my two main concerns are what kind of printer to use and which types of paper are best for each project. I currently have an hp 5610 inkjet printer...would that be sufficient or should I invest in a laser printer? If so, can any recommend a decent laser printer with good quality that won't put me in the poorhouse :-o

I'm not sure what kind of paper I should use for candy bar wrapper, nuggets, water bottles, mintbooks,tea bag labels, etc...

Thanks so much in advance :-D

You can go to the see all forums under forum options at the top middle of the screen & then click on the candy wrapper supplies forum. In there you will find alot of info., or you can do an advanced search at the bottom of the screen & type in what you're looking for. Sorry I can't reccomend anything for you because I'm in a searching mode myself. My printer isn't working the best right now & I really haven't found a good paper I am satisfied with that isn't expensive. Good luck though!

Hi and welcome to the WC family.
I have a HP Photosmart C428 inkjet. I love it.
Paper for the wrappers I usually use low weight brochure paper. The mini's since they are so small just regular printing paper. Mintbooks, either cardstock or brochure paper. It all really depends on your taste. HTH a little. I'm sure someone else will come along and give better pointer.
