Hey I am new here, I just began to take inventory of all my old dreamcast games and want to print the DVD covers here for them.  Im looking to buy a color laser printer, and not spend more than $350.  What printers do you guys suggest?  Also along with the printer what paper should I buy to be able to print out DVD size covers for the dreamcast games on a color laser?

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure about what printer to get, but I do know that you will need to get legal sized paper to print the covers on.

You only need legal paper for Nintendo DS case covers (gb/gba/GG etc etc.)

For DVD cases you can use 8.5x11 paper. I suggest a glossy or semi glossy photo paper.

printer wise: You can get a good Epson photo printer for about 100 bucks.

I personally use a Konica/Minolta Color Laser printer ($250.00) and HP Glossy Presentation paper.
If you have nothing to do... Don't do it here!

You can really use 8.5x11 for DVDs? I tried that, but they would either print too small, or broken in halves on two sheets for some reason. What's your secret?

Isn't 8.5 x 11 too small for dvd cases?

I understand you want to find the answer to your questions, but reviving threads that are 4 years old with a question that you asked in a couple other threads isn't exactly the way to go about it.  I understand you want to know the answer right away, but you have to be patient.
