We just had an HP Z3100 plotter installed and ran through the trial photo paper in doing driver tests.

Now, we need more paper. The plotter is primarily for printing out large database schemes and MS Project Gantt charts. The printer supports up to 44" wide paper, but does that also mean I can go narrower? What type of finish am I looking for?

If I go to CDW I see:

HP - paper-backed fabric - 1 pcs.
HP 19" x 50' Universal Matte Canvas Paper
HP 36" x 100' Pigment Ink Gloss Photo Paper
HP 36" x 100' Premium Matte Photo Paper
HP Artist Matte Canvas 42" x 50'
HP Bright White Inkjet Paper 36" x 300'

I'm not sure what paper is what, is which would serve us best.
