Is this possible, I have dark blue paper that I wish to print white text on.

Usually you print white on a dark background so the printer just misses the white text thus creating white. But how do you actually create white text.

Is this physically possible??

Or white toner.

Basically, regardless of whether you have a colour laser printer or a colour inkjet, you can't make white with subtractive mixing of cyan, magenta, yellow and black.
