UltraPro Luster 300

Photo Grade Inkjet Paper
39 Reviews

UltraPro Luster produces professional quality results and works with virtually any type of photographic subject. UltraPro Luster looks like traditional photo lab paper. Because it is heavier and thicker than a lab paper, your prints will feel more substantial and will resist handling wear. A relative of our best seller, UltraPro Satin, this paper features a deep luster texture to enhance your prints without being a distraction. UltraPro Luster is a brilliant bold white, which means 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.

Beautiful Consistent Colors and Details
I'm on my second 100' roll of UltraPro Luster and I couldn't be more pleased with the consistent colors, details and over all quality. Being a heavier paper, it is easier for me to handle that the Satin comparison so there are less missteps that cause wrinkles and creases. Red River's customer service, response and help has been first class and quick. Bottom line, I'm able to provide fine art prints to my customers at a price point that means there are more of my photographs in more of their homes and offices. That makes all of us very happy. Thank you, Red River.

Ultrapro Luster 300

Its the exact paper I needed, tried others the same weight paper and just came out dull. This paper came out much cleaner and colors were as expected.

Great Product, Always

I've been using the UltraPro Luster 300 for my little 'ol Epson Artisan 725 for a long time. Reliable prints everytime. I've used it on my late Epson 3880 too, great results every time. And whatever printer I get next, it will definitely print on Red River paper products!

UltraPro Luster is a fantastic photographic paper. Its tonality and paper weight is something that we have been looking for a long time.
