There's a lot of different thicknesses of printer paper. They refer to it in the USA as lb. weight. I think 20 lb.weight is the average printer paper thickness, and some of the higher lb. weights are also known as cardstock. This is probably what you're thinking about going to Michael's for.
If you're thinking about using bristol board, though, it's too thick and won't go through the printer properly. Firsthand experience there.
The paper that I use for this is 65 lb. weight and it can be found at any office supply store. Printers can usually take papers even thicker than that, but I forget exactly what weight it is that most stop at. It's either around 90 or 120. I really don't remember. But it's difficult to find paper that thick at some office supply places, so 65 lb. weight should do just fine.
Also, if you have any problems with something staying properly folded, then you can always score lightly where the folds should be before actually folding the paper.
