I use the least expensive regular copy paper from Walmart in my inkjet printer for all the paper piecing I do. The paper is just fine. I shorten my stitch length to make tearing the paper away easier when I've finished stitching. I do set my printer options for 100% or actual size -- depending on the pattern I'm printing -- and I always select draft mode to make my ink cartridges go further. I have NEVER had a problem with the ink bleeding on any of the fabrics I've used, and (believeme) I've used quite a few!
