Okey this will be the worst explaining of my problem ever.
So try to bear with me :P
Oh okey the thing is that I have this paper...which I have no idea what it's called.
I went to an art shop and bought it.
Now I need to get things printed on it.
I don't know if a normal printer can print on this kind of paper.
The paper is thicker than normal paper but thinner than cardboard.
And it's not like normal paper it's much rougher than that.
I mean when you feel with your hand you can feel bumps on it.
*I'm SO good at explaining things :P*
So the problem is that can I try to just print it in a normal printer or will the printer caught on fire and I have to run like hell or...?

Look on the website of the printer and find the manual?

I’d say do a test run except I know with some really generic cheap printers the ink will run and look blotchy on a textured kind of paper. Then you’re stuck with ink all over the rollers and you have to keep printing a bunch of pieces of paper till the mess is gone.

Does it come form a office...?

You should not have any problems... But ch3eck you printer there is often a switch you have to change for tick paper... or else it may jam...

Also... to avoid paper jam put these sheet one by one...

Find the gram weight (g/m2) of the stock (sounds like Bristol).

Look at the printer manual and find the specifications for the range of gram weight of stock that will work with your printer.

Thank you guys for the ideas!
So you don't think it can destroy the printer...the only thing that really can happen is that it get's stuck...or ink will come on the rollers?
Well I think I can handle that.
I will check the manual too!
Thanks again...
