[QUOTE="l_d_allan, post: 203282, member: 5680"] Very frustrating. * Are you having problems with inkjet photo paper, or copy/plain paper? Or both? * Have you asked an actual paper maker if certain paper swells less? * Would "Presentation Paper" made for color laser printers work better? * How about "card stock" paper? Sam's has it in bulk, and IIRC it wasn't that much more expensive than plain paper. But it might be pretty bad at swelling. * A "hold your nose" work-around might be getting an A3+ printer like the Canon Pixma Pro 9000-2, that easily accepts paper up to 13" wide. But it is bulky. There are tons of barely used and NIB on CraigsList. * I wouldn't get a used printer from Amazon or eBay, sight unseen, but I'd consider a NIB (new in box). But shipping could be high. * If the amount of printing isn't very much, perhaps you could arrange to print at an alternative location, further from the ocean. Do you work away from the ocean? * Could you keep the paper stored such that it wasn't exposed to humidity very much, until right before you used it? Or purchase the paper JIT (just in time)? * Could you get actual A4 paper, which I believe is somewhat smaller than USA letter size? Is it narrower? * Just checked ... Letter size is about 220 x 280 mm. A4 is 210 x 297 mm ... definitely narrower, but a bit taller. Would that work?
