Canon A4 Matte Photo Paper MP-101 (50 Sheets) - Suitable for Professional-Quality Photographs and Other Creative uses - Compatible with Canon Printers

I use this paper to print off reference photos. It prints perfectly and is great value for money.

I have an Epsom CX6600 printer and until now, I had always used Epson inks with Epson paper. This is what you are told to do by the manufactures to get the best possible prints.However, of late, Epson costs have been going up and up - and there are so many other compatible products on the market. I therefore decided to change my inks and paper.This quality and feel of this paper is superb - and it has a nice look about it. I am currently using Epson compatible inks in my printer, and with this paper, I have seen no deterioration at all in the quality of my printing - more so with photos. Good price and so much cheaper than other "quality" paper that in actual fact is the same as this.Unlikely that I will be going back to Epson products unless there is a reduction in price.Highly recommended.

Good printed photos looked great. Pleased with how ink worked on paper.

I am very pleasantly surprised by this paper. I'm a professional photographer and I've used most of the professional art papers on the market. I have recently undertaken an extensive personal project. I know how expensive fine quality printing can be, so I was looking for a good quality but affordable option. I've recently done some test prints with this paper and the results really are excellent. Bear in mind it is a very bright white paper so your photographs will have a cooler look to them (Canon's premium matte paper is much warmer). This is quite a lightweight paper which I like, ideal for placing in a print portfolio book if you have a large number of prints to contain - the book won't become too heavy.

I think the general idea is that you should always buy paper that is the same brand as your printer. I think printer manufacturers "optimise" their paper to work best with their own printers. So, once I had bought my Canon inkjet printer I had no choice but to buy this paper.The results were very impressive, and I would highly recommend this paper if you have a canon printer.I also tried my printer with some Kodak Premium Photo Gloss paper which I picked up in a sale in WHSmith. This Canon paper gave far better results.

I was actually expecting black photo paper, I'll keep it as I'll no doubt have a use for it but I guess I'm just being a n00b and got it wrong, I assume this paper is specifically for black (B&W) prints?

I was becoming a little frustrated by inconsistent results from my printer, especially with black and white photographs. I had degraded blacks, lacking density and unwanted brownish tones. I had tended to use whatever brand may be on offer at local stores. However, I have rediscovered that there is nothing quite like using one manufacturer's inks and matched paper. More expensive maybe, but if quality in results is a prerequisite - then essential.

I have recently printed some photos from my laptop using this photo paper and i was surprised at how well the print came out - the colours are bright, the pictures are clear and the quality of the paper means the ink doesn’t smudge. Also great value. I also just have a cheap HP printer and it worked just fine, meaning you don’t need some fancy printer to use this paper!
