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

Very Pleased
After years of resisting digital photography, I'm just beginning to explore its possibilities with the recent addition of an Epson R2880 printer. I'm very pleased to have discovered Red River Paper, and am very excited by the quality of the prints I'm making on Ultra Pro Satin.

These papers simply deliver the goods each and every time. No messing around, just hit print. My choice of paper for all prints. Easy to order and prompt delivery. Thank you!


Good stuff

Henry Winokur, Mar 26, 2026

RR's Ultra Pro Satin is the just about the only paper I use. My printer takes roll paper and since that's the least expensive way to buy it, that's what I use for almost everything if the print size is larger than 8 1/2" x 11", (my default size is 12" x 17"). I admit...I do use a non-Red River paper for "small stuff", but not for the "good stuff". You won't be disappointed if you're looking for a smooth white paper.

Always excellent!
