Hello All,
Has anyone used this and what sort of result? RR paper has it on sale now and I am thinking about trying it. I have a regular (not special) Canon printer.
Thanks,

I had it in one of the sample packages I purchased. I really do like it alot, it provides a different sheen to the overall photo. I printed it with my Epson Workforce 615 printer. Thanks GP

PW, that's a great paper. I use it for stuff that is shiney or metallic. Works well for B&W and IR as well.
Their sample pack has several sheets in it, if you want to try it first.
Unfortunately, I feel it's best results are best in large papers, 16x20 and larger. But 8x10's pop also.
Good luck
SS

Bob.

I had some in a sample pack and printed my Avatar picture on it, with my Epson Stylus Photo 1400, was beautiful. Will buy that paper for landscapes.

I keep a supply of 17 x 25 sheets on hand. I really like it for some landscapes - it seems to restore some of the "pop" or luminosity that often gets lost between the monitor and the paper.
