Hi Julie, yes you can print at home on your own printer if it is a good enough one. you can use whichever type of paper you prefer. I personally do not like glossy and would rather use a matte finish.
Or you can print your LO's at photo shop type stores, costo, walmart, walgreens and such.
There are also online sites which you can upload your LO to and have them printed from sites such as Shutterfly...and oh my so many other ones!! LOL Can't remember all the names.
Another thing to do is use the search funtion at the top of the main forum page and type in Printing, this should give you about 1000's post talking about who everyone likes, who they use and what they prefer!!
