UltraPro Satin 270 Details & Information

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.

Ideal For:
  • Anyone who wants the look and feel of a professional photo lab
  • Saturated colors, neutral B&W, and smooth tonal transitions

  • Any inkjet printer

I was told by a photographer friend that Red River Paper was the best. So I ordered to find out for myself. I was NOT disappointed. Red River Paper is simply the BEST I've tried. A beautiful, quality product for professional results. Pure and simple with 5 STARS being truly applicable in this case. Thanks Red River!

Ultrapro Satin

Michael Nunnally, Aug 12, 2026

I’ve been printing with Luster paper for years, and I’ve now discovered your Satin. My recent project was 25 framed 5x7 prints as gifts. The satin texture is so much more refined, reducing gloss that still shows in luster paper from other companies. And the color rendition is excellent. The satin offers a more even finish that I really like, and will choose as my go-to for smaller prints.

After doing several test prints with various competitive products (including some I had used for years), RRP is, by far, the best paper available on the market. As a commercial photographer for over 45 years, I am now showcasing my personal work in galleries and solo shows. The best!!


Nice Paper

Roderick Best, Aug 10, 2026

I originally wanted to order Arctic Polar Luster, but it was out of stock and I did not have time to wait, so I grabbed the UltraPro Satin 270. It absolutely filled my needs and is just as good a paper as the Arctic Polar Luster, though not quite as bright. Even though I prefer the AP Luster, this paper is way more than adequate for my needs!
