All I can say is YOU GOTTA TRY IT!!!

This is just for inkjet. If you are set on glossy paper this is not. But, when you print on inkjet the graphics are vivid, crisp, correct color and it's coated so make sure you know which side will print. Front is white and back is creme. 27LB Awesome paper...I'm waiting for my 10-20% coupon to pick up alot of it.

I'm almost going to give up my laser for the prints I'm getting with this paper.

Edit: It's not gloss. It's Matte. 100 sheets and is coated and runs about $14.99-15.99 (it's not the one that is $34-35 and not double sided)

I have HP Presentation paper in glossy and in Matte, have you tried HP and compared? HP you get 200 sheets.

I've always used Epson papers with my Epson printers for pictures, they are the best prints available - I have never seen better from an inkjet.

This is not glossy. It has a coating that gives the crisp graphics. I have HP Presentation for laser but not for inkjet. I'm wondering if it's the coating. Just passing along as many members are looking for something...for inkjet.
Well then Paulette you have this paper then?

Lee i found smth like this on a greek site. Is this a paper for soe's or for boxes, it is lightweight. I don't know about American weights but here regular paper is 80grms, and the one i found from Epson is 102 grms. Is this what you are referring to? It also costs..........hold on to your hats........ 42.50/100 sheets and 48.90 if i pick it up at the store. I can't see the staples site as i don't have an american zip code.

So, Lee, have you tried other presentation papers, and, this one 'surpasses' all others? From your description, it sounds wonderful, but, I have bought several different kinds of paper, and, hesitate to buy another one, unless it is just absolutely over the top. (and, it sounds like it from your post) LOL Just asking.

Do you know if they carry this in the stores, or if you have to order it on line? I think I will give our Staples store a call today. Thanks.

Lee, I went back to the site, the price i put was for A3 size paper, the A4 costs 13.15 on the net and 14.50 from the store. The description says Epson inkjet photo quality paper matte 100 pages, 102 grms

No. That is not the one. It's US 15.99 for 100 sheets and is 27LB

This is mainly for those that cannot find or have not tried other papers. If you are set, fine. And if you don't have laser, this is great paper for inkjet.

Just a note: I use Canon with this paper and don't know about other printers. I'm set with my laser and the papers I use...this was for inkjet only.

pwoolfolk · « **Reply #13 on:** November 14, 2010, 09:51:25 AM »

Lee, this is one of the ones I have. Most of my stuff is still packed and in storage between here and Baton Rouge. Is this the same one?: http://www.quill.com/epson-28-lb-photo-quality-matte-finish/cbs/026235.html

I have a lot - would pick them up when they were on sale. I can't remember which, but I think it was Epson Photo glossy, it actually faded after a few years. I was very shocked - the yellow was not nice at all and didn't look classy like a good photo that had antiqued. It was printed with their Inks on a Photo Epson printer - their flagship printer at the time. If not, I'll run to Staples. The site is still down.

Make sure it's the 27LB one as there are 3 different ones...
This paper is also dry to touch...you can rub your hand over it right out of the printer because of the coating.
