I do this regularly. Both printing the images onto matte paper and onto canvas.
In both cases I get the best results printing onto smooth paper, and the smoothest canvas I can source. The texture in a captured image can interact with the texture of the paper/canvas, making it look a bit too busy. Especially in areas of smooth tone, and especially when the reproduction is approximately life-size.
I suggest any of the high quality, smooth fine-art papers. My mainstay is Epson Hot Press Natural. If you can get Canson Edition Etching that's also very nice, and more neutral.
If you are printing the images much smaller than the size of the originals then the texture interaction is less of an issue. In this case a paper with a gentle texture can be used. Epson Cold Press Natural / Hahnemuhle German Etching.
When I use canvas I use Epson Premium Water Resistant Matte as it has a very low texture surface, for a canvas.
