Absolutely love this paper. Works extremely well with ink techniques I have been doing. Thick enough, bright white, and a durable, silky smooth finish.
Also appreciate the company's concern for my satisfaction with every aspect of the transaction.
I'll be back!

This paper is a dream to work with in my Canon Pixma Pro-100! And the included instructions and documentation on color management/printing profiles saved me a lot of headache and ink. I've already gone through a pack and on my second set of 100. Highly recommend.

Love this paper.. I use it with my HP Z series..I do wish they would pad the core to eliminate creases in the last 8 or so feet of the roll. That’s my only suggestion. Otherwise terrific paper!

RR makes many kinds of papers for different projects. The paper I like is UltraPro Satin because it's such a smooth paper and colors pop. This is my go-to paper for most occasions.

Paper bending
Derrick Doty

Love the paper but after the first 35 paper printed the remaining 15 are useless, they are bent at the edges causing my printer heads to hit the paper. That's a major issue for me because that could damage my heads.

Satin paper

I use the satin most of the time for my race photos. I use the 8x10 size and the print size of 7x9 in a small black frame. it gives me a nice white border, so no mat is needed and i can sell the prints much cheaper thin if using a mat and frame. My prints come out vibrant and sharp with no color bleeding. I tell all my clients about RR paper.

Photo prints look great....
William Harrell

I started doing my own printing several months ago and Red River has become my go to paper. My first paper purchase from Red River was UltraPro Satin and I have been very happy with the results. The colors and texture of the prints bring to life what I feel a photographic print should look like and feel like. I recently purchased some 17 x 22 paper and the large prints are very nice. I build my own frames and I love the way my pieces are turning out using Red River paper. The photo below is a piece I just now finished and is hanging in the Irritable Pelican Gallery on Tybee Island, Ga.

UltraPro Satin for Panoramas
After comparing Epson, Ilford and Brilliant paper, UltraPro Satin produced the best results on my Epson 3880. I ordered the 17x25 68lb paper for my panoramas and the color and detail are outstanding.
