Epson makes (in my opinion) the best printers. They also match the inks and paper for the best results. …

This paper works great for my art prints, plus if you buy it in bulk, is cheaper then anywhere else!

The product was used for digital imaging art class, the paper totally fit the color profile of the computer, and the thickness of the paper is just right. Obviously, there’s something to be said for using luster instead for that photo quality look, but for around half the price, this is just as good of an option.

I use this paper in various sizes on an Epson 3880 printer. The results are always good, though I wish I could get a richer black

Excellent paper. I hang prints unframed and I am consistently amazed by its durability. It’s very economical for fine art rated paper and produces incredibly crisp, soft images. Highly recommend.

I use this size for test prints. It’s cost effective and makes for a great print.

I reviewed the wrong paper earlier! It was this paper that printed with tiny whited snow on my new Epson Artisan 1430. Very frustrated.

I’ve used this paper as well as the more expensive fine art matte paper and I can’t tell any major difference my final prints.

The paper is nice and strong. I like that is comes in many different sizes also. It gives good detail and the colors look nice. The one thing I wish is that it was more water resistant but a matte spray finish helps protect it and keeps fingerprints off. I am not a fan of glossy paper and this is perfect for me. It is a good weight and the prints look great. I would definitely recommend for the price.

I use Epson Ultra Premium Presentation Paper Matte for all of my test prints and even some display prints.

I use this paper for promotional stuff. It’s very white, but it doesn’t hole ink like the more expensive paper. It’s just thick enough that you can print verbiage and a logo on the non printable side and it doesn’t show through an image on the printable side. For the price I think it’s great. I print really cool handouts and neat images that I use at weekly presentations. If you soft proof it and spend a little time on that you can make pretty great prints with it, but you can really be let down if you don’t; Especially with skin.

5 stars, for a 5 star paper. I use this paper all the time for my professional work (I’m an artist). High quality prints every time (as long as you know how to use your printer properly and have the right settings in your Adobe programs of course).I use an epson stylus pro 4900 to print on this paper. I haven’t tried it on anything else. I was asked to write a review for paper, which is a little strange because there is not much you can say about paper. A lot of quality of your print comes from the printer itself and if you’ve properly set up the settings and adjustments in your Adobe program of choice. So if you get poor results from a 5 star epson paper, you’re probably doing something wrong. Make sure you print on the right side.Anyways, the paper is a good size, 17 x 22 is the next step up but the costs of that paper starts to get a little pricey. B&H doesn’t allow me to write the price of the production in my review but I did get it for a good price, no shipping, which made the paper cost roughly 80 cents per sheet. Do the math. Not bad!Remember, Matte paper soaks up the ink a bit and color so you may have to boost your saturation before printing, but that is the nature of matte paper.The colors are vibrant, however, so don’t be discouraged by that comment. The paper has a nice thickness and I love the matte because it doesn’t cause the glare and reflection that semi-gloss, luster, and glossy cause when you look at them.Buy Epson paper, 5 star quality version only. (nothing lower than that if you’re using this for professional work). I don’t work for Epson but you would think I did considering the great review I just gave them.

This paper makes great B&W prints with good shadow and highlight details, also good for color prints if one does not need gloss.

Perfect colors and easy to work with

I use this to print fine art prints and this is by far the best standard matte paper. It should be noted, if you are looking for exceptional art paper, this is not it. However, this paper prints well and can’t be beat for the price.
