I could just get the printer you use for 80lb cardstock prints, but im scared of cmyk D:

Thank you! Yes, they totally do. The Canon Pixma Pro absolutely does. Wow Children's books sounds super exciting! I definitely think these could work for that! Good luck with the project! Keep me posted on what you end up doing!

@atouchofla thanks for your time and kind words I wish you a happy and prosperous new year 🎊

@@yourdailybread8611 Happy new year to you as well!!

Hi there! yes, watercolor paper would work great as long as the printer can take the weight of that particular paper :) Let me know how it goes!

Hey there! I am so sorry about that, but I don't have any experience with laser :( If you hear of any good ones, I would love for you to educate me!

@@atouchofla You dont have to be sorry! :) Thank you already for what you are already doing! I just thought maybe i have been looking at wrong videos! :) Happy new year!

@@buvino You're so welcome! Good luck with the search!

Thank you!!!!

thank you friend! I appreciate it so much!

great tip! thanks!

Hi Barbara! In this case, I am talking specifically about the weight of the paper itself. So if you've ever wanted thick invitations, for example, these printers would be good for you. All these printers do multiple sheets at a time :) If you aren't looking to print on heavy paper then any other printer would work for you :) let me know if I didn't answer your question :)

Hi Tony! All great questions. Like I said, the pro-100 or 200 are my recommendations for that. I haven't had those issues with that printer. :) I also link to knockoff ink cartridges you can get for that printer in my other video. If you check it out you'll see it's much cheaper! You can get it on amazon or a few other places that I list in my video. It is "the best cardstock printers for 2024". I hope that helps you!!!

@ Thank you. I had been looking at the Pro 200 but when i saw how expensive the ink was for tiny amounts, somewhere around 12ml to 15ml per cartridge, which is about 1/5 to 1/4 the amount of ink in tank based printers. And anecdotes of needing to spend vast sums for more ink shortly after buying the printer, I found that off-putting. I'll take a look at compatibles, thanks. Although i was leaning more towards the Pro 300 because I want to print more on matte card (i.e. pigment ink), but even when spending more for that printer the ink still comes in tiny 15ml cartridges! It's borderline criminal.

@@tonyhawk123I agree -cartridges are just not feasible

Hi Katie! I always use invitation paper to print out my invitations. So far, my favorite invitation paper isn't super heavy cardstock though. Here is a blog that you can check out that talks about some of my favorite invitation paper. atouchofla.com/the-best-cardstock-paper-for-invitations/ So to answer your question, I don't cut the paper. :) Let me know if you have any other questions.

Hey Felicia! The Pixma Pro 200 can absolutely do all those sizes! I love printing cards on my Pro 100. So I think it's definitely doable. as for the amounts, the Canon Pixma Pro-200 has a rear tray that can hold up to 100 sheets of plain paper or 20 sheets of photo paper, depending on the paper type. It also has a manual feed slot for thicker media and specialty paper, allowing for one sheet at a time. So it really depends on how thick the paper you are using is :) hopefully that answers your question, but let me know if not!

Thanks friend! I’ve been using this one since 2017 with the knock off ink and it’s still going strong. But I appreciate the warning! Something people should look into for sure!

You are so welcome! I am glad I can help!

I honestly think that is the paper. ;) good luck!!! It takes time to figure it out so good luck!

@@atouchofla Laser is waterproof and much brighter - it is solid toner so it sits on top of the fibers and doesn't need photo paper to be optimum. Not good for fine art on photo paper but perfect for labels and displays.

You’re so welcome!!!

Great point! It's important to point out that social media posts don't last long - maybe hours or days. Whereas things on search engines, like Google or Etsy, last forever. So you're right! It's absolutely about the long term game! Great comment, thanks so much for watching!

So glad I can help!!

Hi friend! Happy to have you!!!!! Let me know what questions you have ;)

You're so welcome Rene! So glad you have you here! 💙💙💜💜💗💗

Hey there! You can absolutely sell your own trademarked items on Etsy! However, to sell on Etsy, your items don't necessarily need to be trademarked, you just need to make sure you aren't infringing on other peoples trademarks :) I hope that helps! If you're interested in joining a business community, I'd love to talk to you more! You can jump on the waitlist here: www.atouchofla.com/community

Hey girl. I am so glad this resonated with you. Yes! I think you need to start with your passion FIRST, and then start looking for what will sell :) I am wishing you all the luck with your business!!!

Thanks for coming by friend! I also have a masterclass going on right now that you can check out: www.atouchofla.com/masterclass. xoxox

I’m not sure what that means? Do you mean double sided? If so I can’t speak for the 200 but the 100 does not.

so glad it resonated with you Aimee!

So glad it was helpful! To answer your question if you are using a Cricut to do writing then it doesn’t matter the weight of the paper because Cricut can write on any type of paper. :) the only time it really matters is when you’re doing a print then cut project so you’ll have to use the printer and then cut it but if you’re just using the writing capability with the cutting machine, then it really really doesn’t matter what weight of paper you use. Does that make sense?

@@atouchofla Thank you so much for answering. I’m so surprised to hear this. I guess I thought the pen may not write well on thicker paper. No one talks about making invites on a cricut only printers so this is great to know. I just got a cricut and want to try some cards and invites with just some simple font writing. I appreciate your time and answering. I also look forward to viewing more of your videos! 👍

@@mcharron4122yes you should experiment on different paper with your machine! You’ll learn a lot! ❤ thanks so much! Let me know what other videos you need 😊 xoxo

Hey girl! I actually just wrote this blog to help with this question. I found a few that go a little bit higher in heaviness: atouchofla.com/the-best-printers-for-heavy-cardstock-paper/ Let me know if you have questions. I haven't gotten around to creating a RUclips video on it yet though! If you think it would be helpful, let me know :)

Hey Girl! Thanks for your question, and I am so glad this helped you! The way I would answer that question is that there are specific ways to list your photo without just straight up uploading your photos. For example, you could put your printable in a frame, you could have it sitting on a clipboard, or you could print it out and take actual pictures of it. I explain all of how to do this inside my signature course, The Abundant Girl's Guide to Passive Income with Printables on Etsy. :) You can get on the waitlist here: atouchofla.com/join - but if you are super interested now, just message me on Instagram and we can chat more (instagram.com/atouchofla_partydecorations) I hope this we helpful!

That's funny because it's still helping people even 2 years later.

You are so welcome! I am so glad you are here and this is helping you! So honored you are here! xoxo

Hey Savanna! I am so sorry I must have missed this comment! I am so glad that it resonated with you! I don't necessarily believe in trademarking your name, unless you think it's a big part of your brand. You can trademark anything in your business and that will help to protect you from other's stealing the name. What are you thinking of trademarking? Also! If you're interested, I am going to be launching a community of creative business owners soon, where we can talk about all this stuff! If you're interested, you can get on the waitlist here: www.atouchofla.com/community :) Hope to talk to you soon! xo

Hey Girl! YES! That is absolutely true! They say that when you're trying to manifest a goal, you have to fall in love with the PROCESS and NOT the end goal. That's why they say, it's the journey, not the destination. And as much as those cliche phrases can be annoying when we're trying to go after something BIG, we have to remember that it applies to EVERYTHING. The laws of the universe don't just apply to some things and not others. It applies everywhere. So, if we want to be successful, the first thing we need to do is follow our passion and our joy. Yes, it's going to take work along the way, but as long as you started with your passion, then you can bet you're going to stick it out for the long haul! :) Thanks for your comment Carmalita!

Loved having you there Aimee!

Of course! So glad you enjoyed it Ellen!

hey Jessica! Honestly I don't know. How many are you printing? And on what kind of paper?

I love that you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for watching! If there is any other content you'd like, I'd love to hear ;) xo

I appreciate you saying that!! 😊😊😊 yes that’s exactly right! 😘😘

That is SUCH a great story and such a good demonstration of how sometimes we don't see results right away. And then we get that INTUITIVE HIT that helps us to see what the right next step is! I love that you were given that intuitive hit to keep trying and do it another way! These are the kinds of stories that are ALL around us but sometimes we shrug them off as coincidence. But you and I both know there are no coincidences :) Great job at keeping going and not waiting for permission! xoxo

Sadly I don't! I am so sorry!

Hey there! I probably change one of the ink cartridges every few months. It is hard to say because there are so many of them, and it really depends on what you are printing. I used to use my printer a lot more for my business, but I don't use it as much any more for that. I typically use it for home projects and things of that nature. A good example is in December I decided to print out a bunch of 11 x 14 photos with the printer. I did about 5 of them and changed a few of the ink cartridges at the beginning of that project. It is March and I don't think I have changed them since. As mentioned, I recommend this knockoff ink: shrsl.com/3botx (I know they say that it isn't good, but I have been using it since I got this printer! and have had no problems :) I hope that helps!
