What I said was from memory and the guidance Mark links to above just 
says home prints are not likely to be acceptable.  It also says that 
there should be no printing on the back of the picture.  Well, 
professional prints on photo paper will always have some sort of 
printing on the back - a faint manufacturer's mark and and index/file 
name from the printer.  Despite this my pictures were acceptable.
