Default Printing off Jepp charts: What paper do you use?

Looks like Jeppesen is finally dropping their prices on JeppView and no

switch from the paper Airway Manual and that time-consuming, every two-week
amendment filing service to JeppView.

I remember reading that there are many cost-effective alternatives to
Jepp's own properly sized and punched paper but I don't recall now what
they were.

For those who print off their charts, what paper do you use?


I print mine using a laser printer. Or, for some where I feel the color
is important I use my inkjet printer.

The main objective for me is getting the chart on 8.5 x 11 paper. Makes
them a whole lot easier to read.


What's this about lower prices for JeppView?

I just went to their website and the current pricing for my coverages
(Eastern US & Eastern Canada) seems to be $68 higher than what I paid last
October! And yes, I included only the revision services, not the initial
services.

Where did you find lower pricing?

Thanks.

Oh, I use a color laser printer for the charts and have printed both on
Jepp prepunched paper, as well as good quality laser printer white paper
using a 7-hole punch. Either works OK for the charts I print frequently,
but I'm using up the supply of Jepp paper I purchased initially.

When I print a lot of charts for a long trip, I just print it on regular
paper and don't bother to bind it.
