I had never tried to print photographs on plain inkjet 24 lb paper
before and they are coming out much too light. Is this normal for
printing on plain paper, or is it something about the Canon printer?
No printer does well on plain paper. Use photo paper for photos, use a good
quality coated paper for a mixed use of say, a memo with a couple of photos
on it. The paper makes a huge difference.
I also printed a couple of photos on some HP premium glossy photo
paper I had lying around from an earlier printer. The ink seems to
bead up on the image. Must one use only Canon paper?
Each of the major companies tweaks their ink and paper combinations. Some
us dye inks, other use pigment inks and the characteristics vary. I've had
very good results with Canon paper, but I've also had equal results with
Kodak Premium High Gloss. A couple of people say Kodak is not good for
Canon, but it works for me.
