PPDDouble Sided Photo Paper, Matte Brochure Paper 11 x 17 for Inkjet Printer, 130 gsm, 6.3 mil Thick for Magazine, Flyer, Presentation, Program, Instant Dry & Water Resistant (50 Sheets)

I make my own photo books and this is my go-to paper. Thin enough that I can make a book with 10-13 or sheets printed front and back and side staple it. I have used both the 53lb and 35lb. For my purposes of making a book with 10 or 13 sheets, the 53lb is too thick for it to lay flat once folded, and the 35lb is my choice. I do get a little bit of the "back side image" visible on the other side, but the search of perfection is futile. My second picture should show this on the left hand side. (I'm printing 2 up and then cutting the sheets down to 8.5"x11", then folding that in half for a book 5.5" x 8.5").As photo paper, it's just fine. I normally use Hahnemuhle Fine Art matte papers, and everything I do is on inkjet. Keep in mind, I'm more about content, than the perfect photo print.I'm printing at 720dpi and one trick I've learned is to print one side and let it dry over night, then print the back side the next day and you'll avoid paper jams.PPD paper is what I've used for the past few projects, and I'm sure I'll be buying more.

The media could not be loaded. I want to clarify thi: the paper is excellent to use as display because it prints beautifully, The second print I did after cleaning my printer, came out perfect.However, I would not use to sell as an artprint for customers because it is too thin and gets wrinkled easily.Texture: real matteThickness: very thinValue: Fair

Great for the value, the picture quality is great. It doesn’t smear at all.

Packaging left every single piece with bent corners and slight wrinkling here and there. However, I love the smooth quality of the paper and the print results so much that I'm ordering again today. I ordered the first time in April, but didn't open the paper up until yesterday so couldn't return. I SO hope this order comes in better shape. The bent corners caused black spots of ink because of need of borderless prints. I'll happily post again if the results are better this time. (FYI - I tried other 11x17 paper I have on hand to make sure it wasn't a printer issue. Those came out fine, but not with the quality of printing I want.)

Good paper prints come out great.

Good value but a little thin

It’s definitely not picture grade. Images look like I’m printing on regular paper. It’s not worth the buy.

I bought this to print out a 150-page journal of a trip I took last month. The pages include many pictures that bleed off the edges. With this paper, I can print my pages in the center of the paper and trim off the edges to get the picture bleed. I'm using lighter printing settings to minimize paper warping, and I'm satisfied with the output, even on full-page pictures. Also, I'm able to print both front and back without any distracting bleed through from the other side. This is exactly what I needed!
