My go to paper - and using with Epson P900
Dan M

I've been using this paper for hundreds of prints over many years. Recently tried Ultra Pro Satin, but it it didn't have the richness and depth (to my eye) of PDSatin. This paper also feels more substantial than UP satin.
Eposn P900 note: I had a lot of issues with the 5x7 size of this paper feeding into the Epson P900. On many occasions, the printer stopped transporting part way through the print and kept dumping ink in the same spot, resulting in a big mess. Finally found a simple solution: reverse curl the paper (even though it doesn't have much of a curl) right before feeding it into the printer. I've had no issues since making this part of my feed routine.

Love Palo Duro Satin

The Palo Duro Satin paper is one of the best photo printing products I have ever purchased. If you are looking for a reliable go-to semi-gloss paper this is it. I highly recommend this to other wildlife photographers.

Great paper for display and framing

I am very pleased with using this paper for displays and framing. I print using a Canon Pro 100 with Lightroom Classic software and the printing profile provided by Red River. All of this provides prints that I'm proud to show, sell, and give as gifts. The resulting prints are excellent with beautiful colors.

My go-to paper

Palo Duro Satin is my go-to paper for nearly all jobs that don't demand baryta or fiber. I love the way it renders. The colors are accurate and vibrant---I use both Red River profiles via Capture One and Print Fab. The tonal separation, particularly in the midrange, is not far off from either San Gabriel Baryta or Epson Exhibition Fibre. In my experience, the combination of quality and price can't be beat.

I needed a slightly warm tone lustre paper for a very specific customer job (prints for a major cellphone store that we needed to match to corporate's samples without any info on the paper or printer they used). Found this paper totally by chance and it is perfect. Prints well, base tone is lovely, and flattens out easily after printing (we use the roll paper). Definitely would recommend.

Just what I was looking for!

I needed a paper that would look great for individual and group portraits displayed under glass for a a 25+ person photoshoot. This paper is the perfect weight and has just the right amount of sheen. I used the recommended settings and profiled the paper using my ColorMunki Photo. The individual and group photos turned out beautifully. The client was pleased, and so am I. No question that I'll be buying more of this paper in the future.
So glad you liked this paper Paul! Its neutral white tone make it ideal for portraits.

Great prints with a satin finish

I use this paper for printing final prints for display and framing. The colors are great and they do not fade after years of being up on the wall, even in a very sunny room. I do use the color matching as provided by Red River and, using a Canon Pro 100 printer. the prints are excellent.

Beautiful Paper

Palo Duro Satin is an absolutely beautiful paper. Every sheet is consistent and feeds beautifully in the Canon Pro-300. Using Red River's icc profiles for the Canon produces exquisite color reproduction on the Palo Duro. This is my "go to" paper.

Wonderful paper
I love this paper because it adds a warmer tone to my monochrome photos. It is �just right� in terms of finish- not too dull, not too glossy. My go-to paper!

"Using an HP Photosmart C4580 set to best photo quality, I chose Arctic Polar Luster as my paper choice because the paper's surface shows the saturation of the image in full, without distorting the shadow areas, and without the hindrance of reflection"
