Is there a type of paper for inkjet printers that's a similar texture to standard stickers you'd buy in a store? I bought Standard White Matte a while back and while it's quality, the texture is similar to regular printer paper and I'm thinking about getting a different kind next time. I also don't want to spend more to try out glossy paper, only for it to be too shiny with a similar texture to photo paper, which isn't what I want. I'm just looking for white paper that matches the finish of sticker sheets/books/etc in stores, not too papery but not too much like photo paper if that makes sense, for inkjet printers, if it exists. Thank you.

We have a few different white materials that may meet your needs, but I'd recommend trying sample sheets before placing an order just to be sure. You can enter a free sample request by visiting the link below:

https://www.onlinelabels.com/samples

I'd recommend requesting the following materials:

- 100% Recycled White
- Aggressive White Matte
- White Gloss Inkjet
- Weatherproof Matte Inkjet
- Weatherproof Gloss Inkjet

This selection of materials will show you our entire spectrum of textures and finishes on white materials for inkjet printing. The weatherproof matte inkjet is a very popular choice for sticker makers, but each of these items feature a unique look and feel that may work for your application.

If you have any questions upon receiving the sample sheets please just let us know.

Weatherproof matte inkjet is what I was looking for, not papery but not "squeaky" like glossy is. Thank you!

You may want to consider using matte sticker paper for your inkjet printer. It typically offers a texture similar to standard stickers from stores, providing a balance between a paper-like feel and a non-glossy finish like photo paper.
