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
  • Images with deep blacks and rich color
  • Any inkjet printer

UltraPro Satin is Ultra Fantastic
I have multiple Epson printers and swear by them for my photo and digital scrapbooking needs. I've always used Epson (photo or luster) paper until now. I tried your UltraPro Satin and was amazed at the results I got for my digital scrapbook pages. My scrapbooking buddies are asking where I bought my paper because they think it's designer scrapbook paper from a store because of the quality. The quality wasn't the only superior feature; pricing as well. I got 50 sheets of 12x12 from Red River for $38; Epson Luster was $115 for 50 sheets of 13x19 which meant I was paying for paper that I was throwing away. I couldn't be happier to have been referred to your website. No more Epson paper for me. Your product is Ultra Fantastic! What are you waiting for - give Red River a try.

"I chose Red River's Aurora Art Natural paper. The paper is more fine-surfaced than a raw, fine art, rag paper and it's that quality that provides great earthy texture and tone to evoke vintage themes."

Excellent product

I just produced an entire exhibit on South Carolina using Ultra Pro Satin. The results were excellent, and the paper was great. I also use Red River papers exclusively at Lander University for the students I teach.


Superb paper!

My everyday paper is Canon Pro Luster. But when I need to go long, I need long stock. This paper gives me a basically identical output, and has the size I need for panos.
