This paper is amazing. I shoot a lot of night images. Often the blacks look washed out on matte paper. However the tones look wonderful on the Hot Press Bright.

I’ve tried so many papers for printing on my epson 3880 and this is the best yet…love that it comes in so many sizes so i can proof.

This is a very nice smooth matte surface paper. I’ve used it for years in various sizes. Feels great in the hand, excellent gamut.

If you know this product, you know it’s available widely and what you’re getting. Paper is paper, but you need to get the right stuff. The point of this writing is the B&H difference. I am in Los Angeles, but you’d think from the way it was packed that I lived on Mars. The packaging was solid, secure, professional, and with obvious regard for the condition of the product and my need to have it arrive in good order. 15 stars for packing and delivery!!

Extremely versatile fine art paper for inkjet printing. The bright white smooth matte surface has a great color gamut with deep blacks and white whites. Though its a matte fine art paper, it holds fine detail extremely well, letting significant details pop

This is a heavy paper, which, when it’s surface dries to the expected lustre or soft gloss, is an admirable printing paper for serious work. Unfortunately it does not always dry to a uniform gloss. In my experience, the paper frequently shows different degrees of surface character coming out of my large Epson Pro 3800. The uneven degree of semi gloss persists in the face of trying variables in settings to the point where I will have to discontinue using it. As usual with large-scale manufacturers, Epson is puzzled by my reporting this, and has no clue as to a solution other than an offer to replace it, so I must consider switching to other similar papers.

Great bright white paper, easy to handle and pleasing tonal range. Recommended.

I use paper in an Epson 3880 printer. Can be tricky to insert in read loader, but once you get the knack it’s relatively easy.

I have been ordering the Hot Press Bright Paper for about two years now, and TWICE I have received defective paper in the 8.5×11 size. It is thicker, courser texture and does not print correctly (grainy, blurry, ink bleeds). I consulted Epson directly and they sent me a replacement package that worked fine, but they had no explanation if it was a defective run and no one at B&H has been able to answer my questions if Epson has pulled this paper and replaced it. When this paper works, it is 5 stars, but two times in a row it’s been defective and unusable.

This is the surface I have changed to for all my color work. People often ask me what this paper is as they are impressed by how smooth and even toned it is in appearance. Have switched permanently from Hahnemehle 308 gramm fine art matte to this paper. That it is as good as it is makes sense as the engineers who make the Epson printer I use (and love!) work closely with the paper designers to create the perfect surface for their inks!

This paper has a real nice weight to it and feels hefty in the hand. The matte finish is quite nice, and it doesn’t seem too fragile to me (but I’m careful with it nonetheless). It’s bright, but it’s not white. I print a lot of winter minimalist shots with pure white snow in them, and I would like it even more if this paper were whiter yet. But the slight warm cast isn’t a problem on other shots, or even on some snow shots if they aren’t side by side with a whiter paper. I’ve had no issues with jamming or anything like that. Colors look good, and for whatever reason, prints on this paper come out matching exactly what my monitor shows. Other papers I use require tiny amounts of interpolation to get prints to match the monitor precisely.

This paper makes all my b/w pictures look better. As I mentioned in my review of the 13×19 version it does not distract like the shine of a glossy paper yet it is not dull like some matte finishes. It really makes beautiful prints without calling attention to itself. A picture that doesn’t look good on it probably should not have been printed. The paper will make a good picture look great and is a great value for such a product.

I had always used hot press natural for quite sometime and was happy with the results. But recently wanted to try something new and ordered the hot press bright and more than pleased with the results. I was apprehensive at first as I thought I had found my perfect paper but it seems I was wrong. Great results with color and B&W.

Hot Press Bright is my favorite matte paper, and I’ve made hundreds of prints on my Epson 3880 and now P5000 as well as a rented 7800. I’ve used it successfully for hand-held portfolios (great in the hand), home-made artist books, and framed pieces. From 8.5×11 to 24×36. But I got two bad batches of 8.5×11. Took me awhile to confirm the problem. Looks like an ink bleed problem with blurry images and splotchy color blocks. I’ve successfully used 13×19, 17×22, 17″ rolls, and 24″ rolls. First time I’ve had a problem. I’ll continue to use it, but beware spotty quality control.

Prints on this paper at this size look superb on the wall.

It does a better job of printing detail or subtle color changes

love my color prints on this paper!

I have used this paper with the Epson R3000 for some graphic style art with large areas of black as well as fine lines. I was pleased with the Dmax of the black areas as well as its ability to keep fine lines from spreading. The white background is nice and cool, not bluish, not gray, not yellow. The paper is a nice weight — I did not experience much if any curl from printing. I handled the paper by the edges and did not have any drop out areas. Color reproduction was spot-on (using a profile and calibrated monitor). 2 minor notes about the profile — I had to go to the Pro section of the Epson website to download the profile for this printer-paper combination; and in Photoshop, the profile is a little hard to find in the list, as they use the abbreviation HPB instead of the words Hot Press Bright in the title of the profile. Also, for the R3000, the paper requires you to use the fine-art feed path. I had some issues getting the print-driver settings for the R3000 coordinated with the use of this tray when printing from Photoshop, but that comment is more related to the R3000 itself.

I have used this paper for 2 years and it was amazing, but the last 3 packages I bought has had problems: 1) The first set printed okay but the paper has more brighteners in it and it more “white” than my other paper. So, my colors turn out different. 2) The 2nd and 3rd box: The color of the paper is back to normal, but the imagery prints blurry – the ink bleeds too much. I think maybe the paper is not packaged with the printable side up. Or something is really wrong with the front. 3) All I know is, it prints better on the back…but it still doesn’t print 100% correctly on the back with the previous settings and profile I used. So the paper isn’t really useable and doesn’t print like paper I bought this Spring.
