I'm having problems getting good quality photo prints using coloured
paper.

I use ver. 8 PSP and HP scanjet 5470c. Both produce excellent results
on white photo quality and passable draft results on high quality
general printer paper. I cannot find a coloured paper which does not
react with the ink.

Do I need special paper? If so could you point me in the right
direction?

If you use coloured paper what sort/make do you use? Any other advice
would be appreciated.

Well, it is probably NOT the ink reacting with chemical in the colored
paper.

Inkjet and laser color printing is designed to print correctly, or
reasonably so, on WHITE paper, because any white in the final image must
be furnished by the white in the paper.

Using colored paper isn't bad for just black text or B&W prints. You can
still readily percieve the blacks and grays.

But to print color images on colored paper would be impossible if there
is any white in the image that needs to be produced.

There is no way to produce white with inkjet or laserjet on colored paper.
