What is hagaki paper?
Dot Net Developer
this paper? What does it look like?
Also, I have some paper that is (intentionally) not smooth. I think
it may be called parchment paper, but I'm not sure about that. My new
printer doesn't have this paper type option, but it has many others.
Anyone recommend a paper setting for this type of paper?
Thanks a lot, regards, dnw.

I think Hagaki paper is like postcards.

I've seen the terms "Hagaki" and "Japanese Postcard" used interchangeably,
so I'd guess that it is some kind of a postcard.

Sorry I don't know what Hagaki is but I can advise that paper with heavy
embossing can be difficult to use with laser printers, and to a lesser extent
with inkjets.
With a laser you need to select heavy card or transparency, if it works that's
fine but the toner may not correctly fuse in the troughs in the paper. If the
paper is coated you should not use it in a laser unless the packet says that it
is for laser printers otherwise you may (probably will) end up with fuser
damage.
With an inkjet you can just try to see if it works.

Don't know about it being a type of paper but it is a paper size.
It is 5.3" x 3.94".

Hagaki is a postcard with the size specified by Japan post. Normally, a
stamp and five rectangles with red line for post code area are already
printed on front side; the back of the card is blank. Stock varies from
about 180g/m² to 250g/m². The size is about 134mm X 100mm. There is fixed
postage rate for 'Hagaki size' so if you use this size postcard you can
send a message on it at the cheapest price to anywhere in Japan.
Interestingly, the kanji characters for 'Hagaki' mean 'a leaf with a
message written on it'.

Okay, I am using a Canon Pixma MP490. I had to print something on the
back of my business cards. An alternet email address. I took a photo of
my email address and cropped it. Then in Hagaki setting set it to the
word Hagaki and printed the cards from last to first. In my opinion the
word means card or heavy stock. It was a pain to do but it worked. I
think the, last to first, is the key wording! Sizing and setting was
the hardest. It worked for me!

Yes, hagaki is a generic postcard. There is also "inkjet hagaki" which
is much smoother cardstock and is I belive designed for photographic
quality postcard printing (new year cards and so forth). This is apart
from the photo postcard formats that also exist (but probably fall under
different media type as specified on the package reverse side, usually
given at a minimum for Epson or Canon printers).

Het verwijst naar "hagaki cardstock" naar dik briefkaart-papier dat even groot is als de hagaki ansichtkaarten in Japan.
De traditionele hagaki-briefkaart is 200 op 148 millimeter of 100 op 148 millimeters. Dit is gelijk aan 7.8 inch op 5.8 inch of 3.9 inch x 5.8 inch.
Hagaki kaarten zijn individuele vellen papier. U kunt één ontwerp per kaart afdrukken. U kunt een ontwerp aan beide zijden van de kaart afdrukken als u dezelfde kaart herlaadt.

What he said: "Hagaki" is Japanese postcard size, 100x148mm, with a
"return" type double-size Hagaki at 200x148mm (for folding and returning to
sender with some information contained in the sealed part).

I did a little research and as most of you said Hagaki is a Japanese paper type normally 4 by 4 inches.
"Hagaki" means post card in Japanese.
I was running some test prints and it seems to print really well on FELT PAPER, MATTE LINEN, COATED LINEN and even METALLIC PAPER.
I used a Canon Pixma TS9020 Inkjet Printer. I'm very impressed with this mode, I never used it till today however be careful when using the the Inkjet Hagaki K vs Hagaki A as one seems to spread the in more and the other gives just enough.

Inkjet can probably handle it, with enough drying.
Laser printers require proper smooth finish
and electrical properties to attract the toner.
I know: a friend wanted to use some paper left over from a print job.
The toner just wiped off: never fused to the surface.

That leads to really serious problems when scanning:
deleting the signature and bottom part!

Standard "hagaki" is generic non-photo media, like you usual postcard
that you write on and then maill. Size is 100x148mm.
There is also a (forget the name) double or wide hagaki, which is the
long or folding version. Maybe called "Hagaki 2" in some manuals, it is
200x148mm.
Effectively, this resolution mode is similar to a plain media mode.
Then postcards started being produced with a surface fit for inkjet
photo printing (i.e., photo paper). This type of postcard is desginated
as "inkjet hagaki".
I think there was later a more high quality photo type of hagaki called
"inkjet photo hagaki".
More recently, modes have been split between the address (A) side and
the image/design (K) side. Lets of wasted modes!
So one gets:
inkjet hagaki (A) - address side of an inkjet hagaki, which is basically
plain old hagaki mode
inkjet hagaki (K) - design side of an inkjet hagaki
inkjet photo hagaki (A) - address side of an inkjet phoyo hagaki, which
is basically plain old hagaki mode
inkjet photo hagaki (A) - design side of an inkjet photo hagaki
hagaki (A) - address side of standard old hagaki, which is plain old
hagaki mode
hagaki (K) - design side of standard old hagaki, which is also just
plain old hagaki mode
That said, the firmware may make small adjustments to the printing even
if the resolution mode looks the same in the printjob data. But from my
experience, I cannot see any difference in the output between the three
(A) media selections on my iP and MP series printer/multifunction
device.
Hope that helps.
