Amazing Paper!
Using this with my Canon Pro9000 MKII. Works great and now we no longer order prints, we just print from home.

ULTRAPRO SATIN 270 5X7 & 8X10

Robert Pelto, Sep 23, 2026

I use UltraPro Satin for my scrapbook prints, and it has become one of my favorite photo papers. It produces beautiful, vibrant colors with very little reflection or glare. It also looks fantastic for black-and-white photography, with excellent contrast and detail.

I use this paper primarily for wildlife photography and sporting events, and I’ve been very pleased with the results. The satin finish gives the photos a professional appearance without the excessive shine of a glossy paper. It’s a great all-around photo paper for colorful action shots, wildlife images, and black-and-white prints.


Quality Paper, I Like Luster More (But They're Very Close)

Gregory Bonk, Sep 18, 2026

I ordered this in a sample pack, and my test print (using RR's color profile) was excellent.

I was impressed by the quality, but I prefer the Ultra Pro Luster 300; though I could barely see any difference between the two.

Perfect Paper

Ronda West, Sep 15, 2026

I'm always satisfied with the prints I make on Red River Paper, no matter the type I choose, but most regularly I choose UltraPro Satin for prints of my portrait artwork. It gives me just the right tone on a weight that is perfect.
