I own the Olympus P-440 printer and it is a GREAT PHOTO PRINTER! This ribbon is the only one that the P-440 will take. It comes in either GLOSSY or MATTE. The ribbon determines whether the printed photo is GLOSSY or MATTE finished. The problem with the description on Amazon is that it does not say anywhere, whether this is the GLOSSY or MATTE ribbon. So, I can't buy it because I can't tell which one it is. They do have another one listed that does say GLOSSY, so this may be the MATTE one; but, I won't buy it until I can be sure. One thing that you CAN be sure of, is that this printer absolutely BLOWS AWAY any ink jet printer's photos. Bar none, no exceptions. Trust me, my wife and I are VERY PICKY PICTURE PEOPLE (Say that one 3 times fast!). And, the Olympus ribbon is the ONLY ONE the Olympus P-440 printer will take. So, whether GLOSSY or MATTE, you cannot go wrong. Now if Amazon can just get the specifications and description correct............................

This is pretty much the only available product to use with your Olympus P400 Dye Sub printer but its well made and produces beautiful UV protected/overcoated A4 prints in about 90 seconds a pop. The P400 is pretty much THE advanced amateur Dye sub printer, the only competition that I know of being the Kodak 8500 which produces prints a fraction of an inch bigger (smaller border) but tends perhaps to wash out the highlights a little,
