Most likely, there's a paper that's been designed for the best reproduction of photo's on a laser printer. A little research and you should be able to find out exactly what type of paper would be the best for your machine. Photographic paper is relatively common and you can probably even find it at your local Walmart or K-mart among other places.

Standard white paper will be fine, many try 80gsm purely as it is the cheapest. The thinnest of paper might not quite work as well as some machines can try and pick too much of it up, so do a test, if 80 is fine, great, if not move up to the 100gsm which is only slightly more expensive.
