Vinyl stic

[Roberto Smith]

Hi all,

I am wanting to print out some small stickers on my Canon Pixma Pro 10s but do not know much about the quality of vinyl sticker paper that is out there. Has anyone done this and is there a recommended type? I have been using Canon's own Pro Platinum paper for photographs so far and the quality is superb, but I don't want to spend £1.50 per A4 sheet for vinyl sticker paper, but I want the quality to be decent as well (doesn't have to be as good as the photographic paper though).

Does anyone buy this sort of paper and if so can anyone recommend a decent but cost effective type?

Thanks

Ps I also ought to add that the Pixma Pro 10s uses pigment not dye-based inks. Not sure if this would make a difference or not?

Your entering a very sticky world and it’s not cheap, because no self-adhesive labels are cheap and if they are then there no good.

You have choice of Avery.com, Papilio.com, or Neato.com, these companies produce very high-quality stickers, but please remember Vinyl rather than paper stickers are more the double the price of paper stickers...

There are lots of self-adhesive paper sticker suppliers in the UK, and Google is your best friend for them...
Prepare to be shocked at the prices...

What...?

OP asked about "sticker paper" and you said "sticky world". I thought you were making a funny pun.

Nope, sticker paper has to be sticky, otherwise it would just be plain paper..

Thanks for the replies everyone. I've posted another thread so before anyone points this out, there is a similar question to this but more detail, plus also a question about card stock. I appreciate the replies here though!
