Paper for the Canon GP-300
The GP-300 takes paper rolls in widths from 297mm up to the full width of 914mm. The GP-300 can also accept sheets from A4 to A0 although these require individual loading so roll feed is preferable for print runs. Using roll feed, each print will be horizontally cut by the automatic cutter to drop into the handy catch basket. We recommend a 914mm width for A0 prints and a 610mm width for A1 size. The GP-300 printer has both 2-inch core & 3-inch core capacity so you can choose from a wide range of media from basic plain paper, through matt poster types and right up to heavyweight 260gsm satin and gloss photo paper rolls and banner film or self-adhesive vinyl. Our most popular choice for vibrant budget posters is our GDS Satin 190gsm Photo Paper or our GDS 180gsm Matt Coated Poster Roll.
