This is a very affordable, thick, bright matte paper that has very accurate color rendition. I’m printing on an Epson P800 and aside from some disparity with cyan colors, what I see on my monitor (Asus LCD with no color calibration) and what is printed are identical. I’m very happy with this paper – I have it in 17×22, 8.5×11, and 17×50′ roll.

Great paper with a lovely subtle texture and great tonal range.

I purchased Epson Hot Press Bright White after reading glowing reviews and watching promotional videos that praised it’s d-max and claimed rich, deep blacks and a gamut close to Premium Luster. But in testing this paper on an Epson 3880 printer with Epson profiles, I found poor performance in shadows, and no match to Premium Luster.Initial tests showed muddy shadows and a general foggy image. More detailed test with step wedge images showed that the paper is unable to handle RGB values below the 30 to 40 range. The paper clips significantly below this range, and shadow detail is lost.The paper performs well on medium to high key images, but is unsuitable for images with significant low key shadows. Strangely, the Epson promotional videos by famous photographers contain samples of some very low key images. Don’t be misled by them, as I was.I documented my experience here@

I’ve been using this paper for the last 4 years with no problems. The last two orders I’ve received for the 8.5×11″ paper have been completely unusable. The prints come out grainy and blurry.

Used it for my photo 2 class at university. Printed beautiful in black and white. Absorbed the ink like nothing iv seen before

I’m completing a project where I need to print on a sturdy matte paper. I purchased sample packs from Moab, Hahnemhle, and Epson. In comparison tests, the Epson HPB and HPN provided the best results. The prints were made on my Epson R3000. The paper also trims very cleanly. Unlike some cotton rags (Canson Rag, for example) that tend to chip along the edges. The HPN is a nice compliment for portraits or when you want to dial down the brightness. Great paper!

Hot press bright has a great tonal range and a smooth surface while still a fine art – as opposed to photograhic – paper. No paper is 5 stars there is always more to see than what’s in a print

I have been printing with this paper for years. It was my favorite, but the last 3 boxes have been defective and I had to send each back. The borders actually bled. I guess Espons quality control sucks

Great for Black and White as well as color

This is a great paper. I use this with a epson 2400 and a colormunki. The prints are very vivid. I have two prints on the wall and all who stop by are in love with them. This is my new favorite paper.

I like the smooth surface of Eason Hot Press Bright. And it has a nice weight that feels good in hand. It’s a “go to” paper for my fine art reproduction and portrait work.

I discovered this paper along with the Epson Hot Press Natural in a value paper and have been buying it consistently since then. They are truly remarkable papers. Clients see the images and feel the paper and always comment how wonderful it is.

This is a superb paper. It quickly has become my all time favorite.

I print with an Epson R2880 and I love how this paper takes the ink. The paper is thick, weighty, substantial–like watercolor paper, but with a smooth surface. It can be a bit fussy to load, but well worth the effort. I use this also in the 8.5 x 11 size and wish it came in more sizes.

I’m an advanced amateur and do a medium volume of printing. Dozens but not hundreds of images hanging on other peoples’ walls, mainly 12×18 and 16×24. Epson 3880. After printing on semi-gloss media for years (Harman Baryta and Canson Baryta were favorites), I’ve recently switched to matte for framed work. I don’t adhere prints to the backboard, I mount to a front mat with archival corners, and the gloss papers show the paper’s undulations since the print is floating. It’s particularly distracting with larger images and with museum glass. I’ve tested probably 50 papers by printing color wheels, B&W scales, and a handful of challenging images on each paper: same images, same size, same printer. Epson Hot Press Bright is my current favorite. Particularly behind glass or acrylic, the blacks are as black, the colors as vibrant, and the details as sharp as the barytas. In fact, if there’s any glare from daylight or artificial light, the HPB is more vibrant because there are fewer distracting glares. It’s important to test your prints behind the glazing of your choice if that’s how they’ll be displayed. Mattes get better behind glass; glossies and semi-glossies get worse. Of the 4 Epsons, I prefer the smooth Hot Press to the stippled Cold Press, and the white Bright to the warmer, creamier Natural, but that’s just personal preference. Hahnemuhle PhotoRag Ultrasmooth is very comparable, but 50% more expensive.

The paper is great for photo prints.

This paper is great. Colors look great. The paper makes the sharpest prints on mat paper. It is easy to handle. Like papers it will curl a bit if it if the humidity pops up; but the curl is relatively easy to get out.

Used this paper for some personal work, as an art show and it came out really nice. Printed this paper on the Epson 3880 and the quality is just brilliant.

I use this paper and the 8.5×11 size with my Epson R2000 printer. My formerly standard paper was Epson Ultra Premium Matte, which I still like very much. By comparison though, this paper looks richer and the colors have more depth. You seem to be looking into the paper rather than just at the surface. It also produces great looking black and white prints with deep, rich blacks and clean, bright high values.
