What is hagaki paper?
Bought a new printer. One of the paper settings is Hagaki. What is
this paper? What does it look like? Also, I have some paper that is (intentionally) not smooth. I think it may be called parchment paper, but I'm not sure about that. My new printer doesn't have this paper type option, but it has many others. Anyone recommend a paper setting for this type of paper? Thanks a lot, regards, dnw. |

What is hagaki paper?
Hi!
I've seen the terms "Hagaki" and "Japanese Postcard" used interchangeably, so I'd guess that it is some kind of a postcard. William |

Sorry I don't know what Hagaki is but I can advise that paper with heavy embossing can be difficult to use with laser printers, and to a lesser extent with inkjets. With a laser you need to select heavy card or transparency, if it works that's fine but the toner may not correctly fuse in the troughs in the paper. If the paper is coated you should not use it in a laser unless the packet says that it is for laser printers otherwise you may (probably will) end up with fuser damage. With an inkjet you can just try to see if it works. Tony MS MVP Printing/Imaging |

Don't know about it being a type of paper but it is a paper size. It is 5.3" x 3.94". Jim Hagaki is a postcard with the size specified by Japan post. Normally, a stamp and five rectangles with red line for post code area are already printed on front side; the back of the card is blank. Stock varies from about 180g/m² to 250g/m². The size is about 134mm X 100mm. There is fixed postage rate for 'Hagaki size' so if you use this size postcard you can send a message on it at the cheapest price to anywhere in Japan. Interestingly, the kanji characters for 'Hagaki' mean 'a leaf with a message written on it'. HTH -- Regards, Nicolaas. 2007 Pricelessware CD now available. 600Mb of the best of the best in Freeware.

What is hagaki paper?
Okay, I am using a Canon Pixma MP490. I had to print something on the back of my business cards. An alternet email address. I took a photo of my email address and cropped it. Then in Hagaki setting set it to the word Hagaki and printed the cards from last to first. In my opinion the word means card or heavy stock. It was a pain to do but it worked. I think the, last to first, is the key wording! Sizing and setting was the hardest. It worked for me! |
