The paper is fine, I have used it before. Amazon seem to deliver everything in a box, but not expensive printer paper which you don’t want a dent in it….
Delivery simply placed in an unsealed plastic bag and left on door step, in the rain. Even though we were at home, at no time did the driver ring door bell or knock on door. All captured on CCTV for avoidance of any doubt.
I used this with my HP printer to print photos for a hen party. Worked very well once I have changed my printer to the photo setting and worked out which way up to put the paper. Very happy.
No problem with the product just the delivery. No pre notification from UPS. Would not leave the item ( value 10) with a neighbour or in the porch. Had to rearrange the delivery and wait in all day for it to be delivered
I purchased this photo paper to make my cards as the card paper I normally buy will not go through my HP printer. This does and gives a much nicer result. I am well pleased and in future will buy this photo card instead of plain card paper.

I haven’t printed my photos at home for years but discovering the instant ink scheme and being offered a cheap used HP printer have changed that. There is a wide variety of glossy papers available, I decided to play safe and buy this HP Everyday paper plus a smaller box of a competitor’s product. By comparing the two results, the HP Everyday tends towards a blue cast, I am leaning to correct for this to get a more neutral result. The resulting print is sharp and saturated. The competitor’s doesn’t have the blue cast but is more absorbent, shows the roller marks a little and slightly but consistently goes out of line. Plenty of other brands to try as well as discovering if Premium papers are worth the cost, so far the HP Everyday is good enough.
For those of you who may not know, colours on a computer screen can differ slightly to when something is being printed, in my case, one print came out slightly darker than what was on the screen. So I had to go in and tweak my art to make it print the right result, this is more a “me” issue more than the paper or technology. So depending on what you are printing, bear that in mind, although I imagine if you’re printing photos for an album/photo frame or art/quotes with a very simple/minimalist style, it should be fine. If you’re not entirely sure, I’d suggest you do what I did and buy a small pack first before committing to printing off say 100+ photos.
It may be expensive but it really is good quality photo print paper. I had a couple of photo frames which were in dire need of photo changes. My mum sent me these photos frames and they just came with random photos of eagles and polar bears taken on holidays… They were really quite strange yet I kept them up for over a year *face palm*. I finally got around to buying a new printer (HP Envy actually) and wanted to print out some large photos for the frame. These did the job and now I can look at my family and girlfriend rather than a creepy eagle!
Overall: Would recommend. They are expensive but I can’t imagine you’re going to need too many sheets.
I have not used this product yet so I cannot comment on its quality. A big deciding factor for me was whether this paper had the HP logo repeated on the back of each sheet. I could not find this information anywhere so decided to take the chance. I opened the packet and am very disappointed to say that this paper DOES feature the HP logo repeated on the back of each sheet. I sell prints and cannot sell them on this paper with the HP logo featured on the back so for the time being, this product is of no use to me.
