Has anyone else used this. I ordered the sample pack a month ago and hadn't recieved it so when I was buying two more 30 packs of canon pro today I almost bought a 50 pack of this but didn't till I could try the sample. Well wouldn't you know it was here when I got home. DLed the color profile for it, and ran a sample as I have been running on my canon paper then one on the kodak paper.

I actually like the kodak paper better. Gonna have to play with the canon paper to try and get the colors as good as the kodak. Has anyone else tried this paper? Do you like it?

    I liked some of the papers from Red River Paper Company.

    They've also got a sampler pack. Cards too.

    I use Epson's Matte Heavyweight paper, almost exclusively. I get beautiful prints on it.

    If you have a CostCo near by, I have been very impressed with the very inexpensive Kirkland Professional Glossy Inkjet Photo Paper on my Epson R200. I cannot tell the difference between that and Epson's very good premium glossy.

    i use it and it is good
    i wouldn't dare speculate whether or not its any better than the Canon paper,as I was given a hundred sheets of Kodak pro A4 sheets,which fell off the back of a truck,so I won't be buying any Canon comparitor soon.

    my latest highly saturated photos turned out very well-i felt pleasure as I watched them dry,revealing their colours and details.

    ink, however , is another matter...

    there is a reasonably up to date printer profile sheet in the Kodak pack too-it didn't have my i9950 but I guessed that it would be much the same as the other models

    my a3 paper is Ilford Galerie Smooth Pearl-which I have experimented with but have not needed to use for framing etc yet-its worth trying
