5.0 out of 5 stars Canon Photo Paper, August 21, 2005

By	William C. Chambers "B ill C." (Virginia Beach, VA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Canon printers work best with Canon paper. Not fair but that's the way it is... This is a great deal if you make your own home photos. Great Price and shipped quickly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Almost magic paper!, March 17, 2007

By	Joel H. Hunter "aqualung99" (Sunnyvale, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Granted, I have a Canon printer (Pixma iP4300) but this paper is of excellent quality. I've used HP & Kodak photo paper and the results are never quite as good as when I use the Canon Photo Paper Pro. There's something about it that just makes my photo printing look better than anything else.
Whether that's some sort of conspiracy by Canon or not I'll let you be the judge. From my perspective, when I want the best possible quality of photo printing, this is (and will continue to be) the photo paper for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Extra features of this special paper, August 3, 2006

By	RonJonMon "Bob" (SW Florida) - See all my reviews

I'm a professional photographer, so image quality is important to me.

A Canon Product Specialist was hanging out at CompUSA. She informed me of some special features of this paper. I brought with me a sample photo printed on non-Canon paper on my beloved Canon i9900 8-cartridge printer. She noticed some smears on the photo where I had touched it before it dried. She said the Canon paper won't do that. She printed a sample on Canon Photo Paper Plus. As it came out of the printer she rubbed her fingers on the image. No smear. It seems the Canon paper has a protective clear coat on the front. The ink penetrates it, then evaporates mostly through the *back* of the paper. Try this experiment: Print a richly colored image on this paper. As soon as the printing is done, feel the temperature of the front vs. the back of the printout. The back side is noticeably cooler. That's where the ink volatiles are going.

I use only Photo Paper Pro. It is thicker than Plus, but otherwise seems the same. Same clarity and vibrant colors. And I suspect it is best for images you wish to hang onto for a long time.

There is a deep technical symbiosis between the advanced Canon printers and their special papers. I am amazed at the level of this technology.
