Best photo paper I’ve found.

Erin Pagan, Aug 28, 2026

It’s almost impossible to find a 330 gsm or heavier matte photo paper. I have a sticker business and I’m very familiar with printing and have all the equipment and skill to do it. So when I started sending postcards I wanted to print my own. Little did I know finding a photo quality paper thick enough would be the hardest part.

This paper produces a better photo quality than the canon matte photo paper itself which I didn’t think would be possible. Some of my postcard prints (which are digital copies of paintings a lot of the times) look like they were literally painted onto the paper. Now I also have an extremely capable photo inkjet that takes 6 different inks which helps but the paper makes the biggest difference. You can have the fanciest printer in the world but if you’re printing images on regular copy paper it’s useless.

There’s only one thing that would make this paper perfect. Which would be if they came out with a 330 gsm or more double sided matte paper. I like to print on the back as well to make an airmail border and the addresses amongst other things and they would pop so much more with a double sided photo paper.

This product hit the mark perfectly for what I was hoping to create for a client.

Gorgeous paper that feels luxurious to both artists and non artists. Colors are true to screen and surface is super smooth so there are no distortions. Paper absorbs dark colors very well.
