Tips for Printing Scrapbooking Paper

Whenever you're printing a digital design or paper, you should always check your settings and adjust accordingly. All printers are different, and a designer's graphics might come out a touch differently on your printer. A designer might mention in the product description if they use a CMYK format. This is the one that is ideal for printing. In contrast, RBG is better for on the web. Use a paper with a bit of gloss or sheen for a crisp result, and do a test run before you print out multiple pages. You might have to make some adjustments, and you wouldn't want to waste all of that ink.
