    I am a Scrapbooker and an Independant Consultant for Close to My Heart, so I use this product all the time. The paper stock is great quality, the picture come out looking like I had a professional developer run them through their printing system. I just put it in the printer and click print. The images look so much better that using generic soft gloss or any generic paper for that matter.

    I use this photo paper mainly for black and white photos. I don't like that I have to let the prints dry after they come off the printer otherwise they will stick to a photo sheet protector. For general use, I might use this paper for color photos.

          I like a matt finish. Don't like gloss and glare. This is very nice paper giving me very nice results. It is the only paper I use in my HP printer. I like HP products for my HP appliances. You can use either side so you don't have to check and see what side is up!! Try it.

              I had to throw out most of my prints; the print quality was VERY poor and much of it rubbed off on my hands while cutting the photos. I would NOT recommend this. It is a terrible waste of money.

              Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
