I am not a professional by any means but I have been an avid amateur photographer for a few decades. (Think Pentax K1000, circa mid-80s)\n\nI can also affirm that there is much I do not know about the printing side of this hobby I have enjoyed most all of my life. Having experimented with several different papers from a half dozen different manufacturers, I am convinced that Red River products are the finest available anywhere at any price point on the market today. \n\nJust this week I took first place in 4 different divisions in a photo contest, all printed on Red River papers. Big Bend Baryta was used on two of the winners, wowing the judges who could scarcely believe that I printed the 13x19 images at home rather than have them done professionally. (The other two first place winners were printed on RR Ultra Pro Satin) \n\nI could not be any more pleased with this product or any of the other Red River papers that I have tried thus far. As previously state, I am certainly not an expert but I do know that this paper produces stunning images that will elevate your printed material to a professional level.

BIG BEND BARYTA 310 for BW on Canon Pro-200s

Carlan Tapp, Jul 06, 2026

Beautiful surface paper. Printing only BW. Used the profile with Lightroom, Canon print driver using the suggested Photo Paper Pro Platinum and finally Photo Paper Pro Luster. (both with the proper BW settings) My personal testing was a slight magenta tone in the midtones with the first two tests. Using the Photo Paper Pro Luster with a slight correction in print driver produced good results for neutral bw print.

Big Bend praise

Walter O'Brien, Jul 04, 2026

The best feature of this paper is that prints made on roll paper don't keep the curl after printing like so many other brands do. A little bit of curl can be solved with a heat press. That only seems to happen with smaller prints. Large prints don't need flattening. The nice smooth "N" type surface is a plus as well.

Baryta - Reliable Favorite

Michael Pellegrin, Jun 23, 2026

I want every print to be something I am proud to have for myself and share. Matte paper is beautiful, for the right type of images. I’m still experimenting with matte to learn what images work best. If in doubt it gets printed on Baryta and it always looks great. It’s a great medium for creating great prints. I’m trying to build my library of sizes by reordering BEFORE I run out. Always feels good to have sheets in the drawer when the need arises.
