Great all round paper
I "Discovered this paper while looking for an affordable quality paper for my wife to use in digital scrapbooking. At the time the 24 inch X 98 foot 2 inch rolls were on sale and I have a 24 inch cutter. Cutting 13 X 13 left a Letter size and two odd size snapshot sized left overs. It worked beyond our expectation with a Canon PixmaPro 9000 MKII. After She used up the paper from two rolls I bought the 13 X 38 Panorama paper and cut it into 3 equal sheets for her to finish up. This is much faster than the rolls and there is no waiting for it to flatten out. She also prints about two dozen wall Calendars each year using the left over letter size page that I comb bind and these are our close family Christmas Cards sent around Thanksgiving with a December page that doubles as the card and then a full year. The 47# is perfect to slip into the 12X12 scrapbook sleeves and is heavy enough to hang from a wall as a calendar. It also produces great letter size prints to frame and we print snapshot grandkid photos on the odd size leftovers using a smaller printer. So the roll gives us great value with no waste and the prints are welcome by all. So I buy the rolls when I have time to cut and have time for the paper to flatten for need it tomorrow I order the Panorama paper if I do not have enough already cut. If you have a 24 inch cutter this is the way to go the cost for a box of 15 sheets is about the same as for the 24 inch roll and the roll gives twice the number of 13 inch scrapbook pages and as a bonus you get about 90 letter size sheets and 180 snapshot sized for free. So if you print a lot a 24 inch cutter will pay for itself quickly.\r\n\r\nI live about 50 miles from their location so I order in the morning and the next morning it is in my hand often less than 24 hours. While you may not get it this fast it does point out that the order is out the door within hours of being placed.\r\n\r\nWhile not a paper of choice for Archival or Art prints for daily use and gift prints it is our favorite paper. Scrapbook pages done around 5 years ago and kept in albums show no fading or color shifting when compared to a new print of the same page. I refill my Cartridges which allows us to make lots of prints without needing to give up anything on this paper and everyone comments of how these look better than any prints they have from the Big Box stores.\r\n\r\nGreat Paper It has been our go to paper for about 5 years.\r\n\r\nBill Lewis

I use this paper exclusively for customers who want beautiful prints for a low price. Holds color very well and has never let me down.

Very satisfied customer

Louis Rabinowitz, Feb 02, 2026

I've been enjoying printing cards on this stock. They are of the same matte quality as the 8x10 papers I use to print my photos. They are very easy to fold and make a nice visual and tactile presentation.

Smooth finish - great quality

I am very happy with the quality of this paper, I use it for my sticker and keychain packaging. It prints beautifully and it has just the right weight for the backing cards and bag toppers. 10/10 would recommend
