How important is it to print DS 160 confirmation out on a laser printer?

Thanks for the help

The DS-160 is an online forum, you do not print it out and submit it, you only print the confirmation page AFTER you submit it electronically.

Follow the flashing arrow below in my signature for details on the process.

Get over to the Philippines forum where you can get assistance with the process in MANILA! http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/129-philippines/

This is what it says...

  • The completed DS-160 application form will generate an alpha-numeric barcode confirmation page. Print this page.
  • Once you have printed the barcode confirmation page, hit the "Back" button on your web browser and then email yourself a backup copy of the DS-160. The emailed file will be in PDF format, which requires Adobe Acrobat to view or print.
  • The DS-160 form is online here: https://ceac.state.gov/genniv/

No one seems to understand the OP's question...

I would assume that any printer could be used (laser or inkjet) as long as everything looks normal when printed out.
