HP Inkjet Glossy 8 1/2 x 11 Inch Brochure Paper 50 Sheets (C6817A)

I love this paper. It's finished on both sides for ink jet printing. When I prepare a cd insert, it's great to be able to use both sides. It saves me time, storage space, and paper. The quality is very good!

This paper was absolutely horrible for me. I have a Cannon i960 printer and I tried printing on all settings, the ink just sits on top of the paper and won't soak in. When it finally dries the photos are grainy with dark blotches. I used to use double sided Kodak paper and it work beautifully, but I can't find it any more.

This looked like the perfect solution for a double-sided paper, but it doesn't work at all with my Epson Photo 1200 on any setting (and I've tried them all). The ink doesn't dry fast enough, and any dark parts of the photo turn out completely blotchy when it finally does dry. I've kept it around for a few years, and keep trying it on different projects, but have never found one I can make it work with. It's going in the trash.

I have been sending out family Christmas newsletters for the last ten years and have come to really like this paper. I usually mix in the family accomplishments and opportunities with lots of color photographs and lively blended color borders. In short, I have found nothing that compares to this paper when it comes to inkjet printing for it's ability to hold the ink without bleeding and maintaining a crispness of color that rivals photographic paper. I print on both sides and have absolutely no problem of any kind. It also folds exceptionally well which is essential for envelope stuffing. I am very happy with the results that I can achieve with this paper.

Printing quality on my Cannon S520 is horrible, the ink doesn't seem to dry on this paper fast enough, resulting in ugly blotchy prints. All other photo paper I've used printed perfectly but this paper just plain sucked.
