For paper piecing I just print on regular copy paper, works just fine. Actually I print one, line up 2-3 blank sheets underneath and cut them all at once.

Usually people use freezer paper, typing paper or vellum (tracing paper) through printers for patterns. People also send fabric through printers, for direct printing on the fabric (usually, I think, fused to freezer paper for stability).

I haven't done any of these things. Just been wanting to! So, I could be wrong.....
