It says "paper type" _not_ manufacturer. Unless some new technology has been developed I doubt that the manufacturer of the paper can be detected
Really? You doubt that? A simple conductance test could server the purpose. Photo paper is different on each side. A simple comparison would do.
Many printers made today have 2 lasers or LEDs....normally 1 is blue and the other red. One reads the type of paper and often the size as well. This is 1 of the "complications" the community has in writing good Linux drivers for a number of printers, in particular when the maker doesn't want to give out the specs. for one of these newer printers.
