2.
Explore on-demand printing: Print frequently updated forms,
manuals, catalogs, reports and other printed materials that are

Use paper specifically designed for the equipment you’re

Merchant branded papers: Printers keep huge quantities of
merchant branded papers in stock. Because they buy in volume,
they are able to get better prices and pass the savings on to
customers.

key. Consider factors such as image quality, brightness, equip-
ment choice, and end use (is folding required?). Then select a
paper that will ensure the best results.
