Well, you won't be able to TT with it, but at least you'll be able to print on 
it in some way...
The old Staples "130g/m2 Inkjet GLOSS paper" is fairly good, but all the stock 
has gone AFAICT.

HP C1847A "HP Photo Paper" (aka Q5437A) is the best - again, if you can find 
some - it's been out of production for a few years. Toner sticks well, and the 
paper floats right off. Q2510A ("Everyday" HP Photo Paper) is the new stuff, 
but I find the toner doesn't stick as well, so you sometimes get gaps. You 
don't usually get fluff stuck to the page though :)
