I have a 3 color Epson stylus 600 printer that does well. I get the best
results using Epson photo quality glossy paper (S041124) which I usually
buy on sale via internet. This is letter size paper and is cheaper
than pre-cut.

I use a 12 inch paper cutter to trim the paper either before printing
or after printing.

In general, you want the brightest paper for photos, but the glossy
photo paper gives much better results than the non-glossy, IMO.
