Choosing the wrong paper is one of the common mistakes done by people when it comes to button making. If you have encountered such an issue here is the solution that will give your buttons a perfect look.
Select the Type of Printer
In the way to select the best paper, select that can be printed by your printer. Inkjet and laser printers are the common printers for button making. There is a different industry for the manufacturing of papers for the printer. But in a nutshell, an inkjet printer uses ink that soaks on the paper. Whereas laser printers put to use toners that are generally melted on the paper with heat. Make it easy, buy the paper that suits your printer.
Paper Weight
Choosing the right paperweight is also important! Paper with lightweight will make your button crease everything together. Whereas thick paper can jam the machine and cause a lot of frustration. Firstly consider the size of a button then brightness and thickness.
Paper Brightness
For crisp and vibrant prints, you must choose the paper that has the highest brightness rating. Typically anything above 95 will assist you in making high-quality prints. Watch for the terms “Super White” and “Ultra Bright” for the top quality.
The best way to choose your paper is by defining thickness. As the materials used in the different styles and brands of the paper may vary, hence the thickness will help you in defining the paperweight.
