There are just so many choices out there. Most people think the safe choice is buy the paper "made" by your printer maker, but some go a different route.

I've used Red River Paper for the past few years and have fell in love with it. The paper works as well if not better than the Epson/Canon paper I had been using and is much cheaper, with a better selection. I like the 68lb photo gloss.

What do you guys use?

For routine prints, I use Kodak Premium High Gloss 59 pound. For the more important prints or ones I make for other people, I use either Hewlett Packard Premium Glossy 64 pound or Ilford Galerie Smooth Gloss. I'm not sure of its pound rating but it's 280 grams/square meter. Based on the similar ratings for the other papers, I'd say it's about 74 pound.

I have a been using the Epson papers. I always get them when a local store has a 'buy a pack, get a pack free' sale.

Always nice to know what other papers work comparably well though. I may have a need for them in the future. Thanks for pointing them out!

I tend to use Canon paper myself, but I also have quite a bit of Epson paper and some IBM 4x6 paper that is surprising good (it was very inexpensive).

I just use Hp photo paper but thats because I have all Hp printers.

I use Kodak and HP paper. I prefer to have 60lb HP paper to the Kodak though.

I use Canon Photo Glossy or Ilford on my Canon I960.

I use Hp or Kodak Ultimate on the HP printer.

I understand that the Epson paper works well on the Canon but I haven't tried it yet.

Works very well. I've used it from time to time.

Anybody still here?

We've jsut discovered that a bunch of pictures we printed on some less expensive paper (Office Depot brand and a Wal-Mart brand) are having problems several months after printing. The Office Depot ones are getting sticky, and the Wal-Mart ones are actually becoming blurry. I'm wondering if people are still happy with their paper choices a year later. How do those pictures you printed a while back look now?
