Has anyone had a crack at printing their own boxes?

I'll fully admit I'm an arrogant bastard.
But if I used that as my logo, people would confuse me with an Atari age mod

Monjici that looks pretty good. What weight was the paper? to get that box type feel i found you need at least 12pt 14 would be better. was it matte, semi gloss or glossy?

Sorry I can't tell you if that printer would work or not, I'm not an expert on printers (Actually hate them from when I used to do IT work). All I know is stuff that's burnt me in the past not long ago (As in, 3 months ago tops)

This it just plain firstchoice multiuse paper (24lb/90g/m²). I haven't tried printing boxes.
I think it's matte. The glossy look in the pictures probably comes from the laser printing process.

Ok I've purchased that canon printer from amazon.... I asked if it could print on 12pt glossy card stock and got a yes answer, so lets cross our fingers and as soon as I get a box made I will post some pics
