This paper is great for reproducing digital images both color and black and white. The surface is in between a glossy and a matte finish. I have not had any problems with color reproduction on the paper or problems with the color fading. It does have benefits over the matte finish, it does not scratch like the matte finish and there is more definition in the image. The paper is a good buy if you want high quality archival prints at a low cost. I use an epson printer so I can not personally say how it works with other printer profiles but I do know that people have had success using other printers other than epson with this paper. There is one concern that I have noticed and that is if you store your prints anywhere where they could be exposed to high heat make sure that the images do not touch if they are stacked. I have not had any prints ruined but I have noticed that they will stick together slightly.

Used this for printing passport photos. Even my Dutch passport photo was accepted. (The Dutch gov't recently made photo rules extremely strict, I was the first at the consulate who had photos that were actually correct on the first try.)

Beautiful paper for any type of print using the R1800

I love the texture of this paper, the ink seems to stand out on it, and the finish is very similar to instore photo processing. I'm an avid scrapper, and just nerdy enough to not like the textures mixed in my pages. This fits right in with my pages from commercial processing, without having to wait for a trip or two to the store. I have a canon printer, so it's taken a little experimenting to get the brightness I am used to, but once I saved those settings, everything is printing great now.

We are a professional photography studio and are extremely pleased with this photo paper. I placed this order through Amazon because I trust this site and they were very competitive on pricing. The fullfillment house was very prompt in shipping and the product arrived packed very well.

Delivery was timely. Product was just what I wanted. Thank you.
