Description

The Top Selling Red River Brand Paper for 18 Years

If you print, you have to have UltraPro Satin in your paper inventory. It produces professional quality results and works with virtually any image. The UltraPro Satin looks and feels just like photo lab satin - a lightly textured surface that breaks up reflections and minimizes fingerprints. UltraPro Satin features a medium depth texture - just the right amount to enhance your prints without being distracting. A brilliant, bold white, it is particularly good at reproducing deep blacks and higher contrast. You will see a wider color gamut as well as smoother tonal transitions. Your black & white photos will be neutral and crisp.

  • Anyone who wants the look and feel of a professional photo lab

Liking it!!!
I love the quality of the Satin Paper. It is dead on look and feel of a lab print quality heavy paper. The only thing I would prefer is to have the paper logo on the back side like HP and Kodak do. Just a personal preference that I think adds to the professional quality of the paper. The price is also very much better than HP or Epson paper (about 1/2 the cost vs buying at Office Max). I also very much appreciated the professional ease of customer service. Thank you Red River Paper!

Perfect Quality for Fine Art

Brooke Stefanelli, May 14, 2026

I am beyond impressed with the quality of this paper! My prints turned out remarkably well and met my detail-oriented standards.


Great Proofing Paper

Jack Pohler, May 10, 2026

I like to use a thicker paper for a final print, but find this paper a very good paper for proofing. I don't obsess over details so someone else might disagree, but I find the prints to be accurate for my purposes and the cost low enough to encourage experimentation.

Suggestion

Gordon Svoboda, May 09, 2026

It would really be a benefit if there could be less expensive proof paper with the characteristics of the papers in consideration.
