Wow. That's a hard one because the function of paper piecing is to be more precise. Each time you print the pattern it is the same.
Another method might be foundation piecing where you draw the pattern on muslin. this isn't as precise.
Then there is just plain piecing. This is where you figure out each individual piece size, include the seam allowances, and then cut the number you want. Or you can use instructions provided for a pattern, like Turning Twenty. This is what I most often do. When I have an interesting piece I want to do many cuts of and it isn't a usual shape: square, rectangle, etc, I can go to a local plastic company and they'll cut me acryllic templates rather inexpensively.
I often experiment with EQ6 to visualize the overall effect of a pattern or color combination.
