Premium Presentation Paper MATTE (8.5x11 Inches, 100 Sheets) (S042180),Black

I am a stay-at-home mom who loves to paint and I’ve recently decided to have a go at selling my art prints! Over Christmas, I treated myself to an Epson 8550 EcoTank printer along with this Epson Premium Presentation Double Sided MATTE Paper. The paper I purchased is in a pack of 50 sheets that are 8.5” x 11”. So far it has been working out wonderfully. I’ve been printing 8” x 10” on the paper so that I can also offer 8” x 10” Matting, but they also look great printed with no border. I’ve had no issues with smearing/smudging while printing borderless on the paper. The matting I’m using was also purchased on Amazon. I am extremely happy with the quality of the Epson paper and don’t think I will ever change! I’ve also heard that it’s best to pair Epson papers with Epson printers. My printer has a preset setting for Presentation Matte Paper so I just go with that every time and the colors come out vibrant and accurate to the original paintings. The paper is smooth, but sturdy. I’ve noticed a slight curl in some of my prints, but it’s no problem once they’re popped in a frame or between matting. Overall I love this paper and I’m excited to try out larger sizes! There are a few things that I have learned along the way when trying to create art prints at home. At first, my prints kept coming out much darker than the original painting and I hope these suggestions can help out fellow artists who have been running in to the same problem. • Take your photo of painting in INDIRECT but bright sunlight (this helps capture the colors better) • You will always have to edit your photo in some way prior to printing • While editing your photos, do it in a dim lit room with your computer monitor brightness at about 20-25% max • This step is crucial- Make sure your printer setting is set up to match the same paper. Ex, with Presentation Paper Matte, select matte setting. • I have found printing in AdobeRGb to work the best

The weight of this paper is close to a light card stock. Laminate two of these together and you get a nice paperback cover. I used these with the HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M283fdw and it was fully compatible- feeding through the manual tray (Tray 1). It worked great each time and did not smear and was instantly dry. The colors are pretty good- but that will depend more on your printer. It is matte, so you won't get the "gloss boost" of saturation that you might expect. Remember they you need to set the paper weight in your printer settings. This paper runs MUCH slower through the printer than my standard 20lb copy paper type stuff I print most things on. Seems like a solid value if you don't need a bunch and just want to have a little bit around for projects and heavier printing.

This paper is great for projects. I even printed the whole color on these and they were very sturdy. The texture amd quality is great, thickness is perfect, print quality when its set to correct setting is great, and even on plain paper setting looks really good. Dries very quickly, and for a price I won't complain, they are very affordable for the quality of what you can do with it. I use them on my Epson 2850 and they work great even on HP printers.

I have been using this paper for years, always great quality, but previously, it was not truly double-sided. Of course, you could always print on both sides, but one side was brighter than the other. I would fold the paper over on itself to determine what was the best side to print on. The latest batch I received, looks like Epson addressed this issue. When I folded the paper over on itself, I could not see a difference, and I think that was because there is no difference! I took sheets out of the package and purposely alternated sides, printed them, did not see any difference. I always get great color saturation and true colors when using this paper, just make sure your printer is set to Inkjet Paper setting. There may be cheaper papers out there saying they are as good, but I have always had great results with this product, not willing to take a chance on others. Buy a pack, try it, you will not be disappointed!

I have a Canon printer and this works best out of all other photo quality papers. I attached the photo of one printed paper. I use for photos too. It's great. I did not have a printer jam. I love the Matte finish, I used for the Christmas card too. I hope this helps.

Decent presentation paper for a good price.

Great paper, a real game changer for printing invitations & party decor. I have a very basic old probably obsolete printer (HP deskjet 2540) and prior printed party invitations looked so dull. I found this paper on a blog and decided to give it a try. The difference is stunning (I don’t think the quality was captured well in the photo, doesn’t do it justice in my opinion). The colors are so vibrant and the images much more clear than with other cardstock. I’m an amateur at best creating things in Canva for my toddler’s non-existent party theme and this paper made the invites look almost professionally printed. Can’t wait to use it for my daughter’s party. I will say I expected the paper to be heavier so it doesn’t quite feel like I wanted it to when held in my hand (expected more of a holiday or greeting card feel) but I don’t even care because the print quality is so nice.

Takes long to try, it does smear and soak in alot of ink, however after it dries it looks like a poster, I didn't think you could even print high quality prints with this, beyond my expectations, size is accurate and looks great, The matte is hard like cardboard.

Good paper.

ممتاز جدا

Absolutely the best photo paper I have ever purchased. The colors are vibrant and bold. It is a matte paper but it doesn't matter for the quality of the picture. I am in awe of the quality and I cannot say enough about it. My printer is an Epson ET-2850

Gutes Papier, zu empfehlen
