[tazgma311]

So ran out of Paper and I have these old cotton paper by Wausau. can use theses to print out label until get my paper from store?

25% cotton they are meant to be used for Writing with pen. and seems can used them for printer too

But Just wondering the rules on paper that can used to print

[mtgraves7984]

No known rules on paper type. Will they feed through your printer?

As long as your printer can actually use the cotton paper, it's ok to use.

There are different varieties of cotton paper. Some are very smooth and others are textured. If it's textured paper then I wouldn't use it - it could make the bar code too difficult to scan. Do you have a few sheets of paper that you can reuse/upcycle and print on the reverse side? @tazgma311

I cut most of my labels out of most of my paper . any extra left over ones will be slice . the cottons ones are very smooth

There are no rules on what kind of paper that you can use. I used the same kind of smooth cotton paper and had no issues. I did put clear tape over the lables though. I had no problems with the paper. I used all the cotton paper I had until it was gone. 

Just like you I found the paper in my moms storage closet.

Then you're good to go. The only reason to not use a certain type of paper is if it interferes with the barcode being scanned.
