This paper is great for printing 2-sided greeting cards. The photos come out sharp and colors are vivid. You would need a printer that handles matte paper.

This Rag paper is just awesome, the icc profiles are very effective and its texture is perfect.

I love Moab papers, especially their rag papers. Entrada Rag Bright 300 is a heavy paper which feels natural and luxurious to the touch. Although it’s double-sided, I use it as a single-sided paper for fine art prints for exhibition or portfolio work, particularly for matte black and white prints. It’s the perfect combination of reasonable price and terrific quality. The tonal range is superb and I find that the D-max is better than most matte papers. It’s also more neutral-toned, which is what I want. If I want warm-toned prints, I’ll tone my prints! Strongly recommended. While Epson Cotton Rag papers (bright and natural) are also very high quality and almost indistinguishable from Moab’s, if you’re not printing with an Epson printer, you can’t get access to icc profiles for Epson papers. Moab is not just a great alternative, it’s the paper to use, whether you have an Epson printer or not.

This paper displays my images incredibly well, very vibrant, holds details, and is a paper I can sell prints that are archival with confidence. It compares favorably with the Hahnemuhle Rag papers, and I believe is considerably less expensive. Also the paper weight doesn’t allow any buckling in dense image areas. I have used this product in sheet and roll forms since it came out around 5 years ago and it has never disappointed me.

Moab Entrada has been the base of many successful prints for me and my clients.Nobody does a better job of packing paper for shipment than B&H. I can depend on receiving my paper in perfect shape every time regardless of the best efforts of shipping companies to abuse the packaging. Kudos to B&H for doing an extraordinary job!

I love the clean whites with color prints. Like any matte paper you need to be careful with the low tones blocking up. For B&W try the Entrada Rag Natural.

Have been experimenting with different photo papers and this is by far my favorite. If you need to buy premium paper buy this one to get great results.

Especially for warm skin tones, where radiant, smooth skin is presented, this is an outstanding choice. With experience, we favor certain papers for certain types of images, and I think this is tops for portraits of children and young women in soft light. Sometimes matte paper just work best, as in the cases mentioned here.

I use this paper in my Epson 3800 to produce custom photo albums.

Bright paper for B&W and color prints. Really not much to complain about. It is slightly cheaper than the Hahnemuehle versions and it is both sided (for a matte paper not that special). It’s heavy enough to hold color and not deform.

I love the way my color images look on this paper

Check out their fabulous Website for any questions on the products. Website is very user friendly and has examples of the types of papers that each photographer uses and why they chose them. Excellent products! I just bought their Slickrock Metallic and can’t wait to try it! Check out their BLOG.

A little context: I used this paper for printing in a photography class, but now I will use a lab for my prints for my business and I haven’t found a lab that uses this paper, so I don’t think I will be using it again. I loved using it in my class though. The colors are really nice, the contrast is maybe a little softer on the paper than on the screen (but I like that), and the paper feels sturdy. I prefer matte to glossy paper because I don’t like the sheen on glossy papers. I also like that it’s double sided.

I’ve been using this paper on a Canon Pixma Pro-100 Printer, which is dye based – and really love the results. The tones are very subtle. You wont get rich blacks – but the prints come out very natural looking, with bright whites, great skin tones, and despite the not super smooth surface – great detail. Have not yet tried this stock on a pigment printer, but will soon. This stock is great for printing proofs, 5×7 original prints and notecards. The 300gsm weight has a nice heavy feel to it – and the fact that it prints double sided is a great bonus.

Tried a sampler of Moab papers and quickly bought a pack of the Entrada. Such lovely texture, feel and colors. I make bookmarks with it. Feels amazing!
