Question
Can I print certificate paper on a regular home printer?
Answer
Yes, but within limits set by your printer. Most home printers can handle certificate paper up to a moderate cover weight, and the finish of the paper matters as much as the weight.
- Most inkjet printers manage certificate paper up to about 80 lb cover stock.
- Laser printers do best with smooth or matte finishes.
- Textured stocks such as linen can cause toner adhesion issues on laser printers.
- Check your printer's maximum paper weight specification before printing to avoid jams.
