I didn't think the brand of photo paper was important when printing photos.........boy was I wrong! This paper printed near photo lab results but I am also using a Canon printer which might make a difference.

I didn't give it a 5 because it was not as glossy as I expected. Otherwise, it is a good quality, professional looking print.

We have a Canon iP4000 printer and the photos printed on this paper is by far the best out of the all of the brands we've tried.

I have several canon printers. Only use thier paper for the best results. Photo paper plus or Pro is the only way to go.

I truly think this is the best photo paper for the money, on my Canon IP6600D the images are near photo quality, bright, and have zero smudging.
CANON'S BEST VALUE FOR PHOTO PRINTING... TRULY AMAZING - Review written on January 26, 2006

I have the Canon MP500 printer and Canon Rebel XT camera - both capable of producing amazing results, but paper makes a HUUUUGE diference in photo printing. I have both the Canon Photo Plus Glossy and the Photo Pro papers. If you are looking to print out very impressive photos, then I would recommend getting the 8x10 Photo Plus Glossy - definitely nice enough to frame. And with Plus glossy, you're definitely saving $ instead of paying $$$ to have professional photos done at a professional or retail store. And I even scanned a professional photo that I had done last year with my MP500 and printed using Plus Glossy, and the print is significantly better than the original.

Pros: Best Value Canon has to offer. Great, great prints, my favorite paper overall. As good as Pro, and less expensive. About 55 cents per page in a 30 page pack of Pro compared to 40 cents per page in a 20 page pack of Plus.

Cons: None at all so far. have not seen if photos last over time.
The Best Photo Paper I've Used - Review written on January 20, 2006

I own a Canon i860 photo printer and love it! I've tried several different types of paper and this Canon Photo Paper Plus (I use the glossy finish) produces the best results I've ever gotten. It is impossible for me to tell the difference between the ones I print at home and lab-produced prints. I think it is certainly worth the price Amazon is currently charging. This paper beats out Kodak Picture Paper for quality, as well as the HP papers I've tried,even better than Jet Print Professional papers I've used. Of course, I love the Canon printer too, so it's a great combination. I think you'll be pleased with this paper, especially if you have a photo printer.

This paper is great It has canon printed on one side so you know the difference between the two sides. the pictures come out clear and concise. I am not a professional but I cant tell the difference between the pictures i printed and the ones from the lab. i believe its all in the printer and paper. They are all from from canon
Don't use plain paper - Review written on May 25, 2004

I just got my Canon i550 printer. I printed out a photo on plain paper, and the quality is very bad. I was so disappointed. I started to doubt people's praises on the Canon printer. Then I bought the Cannon Photo Paper Plus Glossy, and was stunned at the printed result. It's dark room development quality. So I guess it's the combination of the printer and the paper that makes it look good.

Price: 50 cents/page + ink = less than $1/page. The price for 8x10 development on ofoto.com (a Kodak's company) is four times more expensive at $3.99.

Quality: Stunning

Dimension: I don't know why 8.5x11 has become the standard for photo printing. Most frames out there are 8x10. Do I suppose to trim the printout myself?

Borderless: it's almost borderless, but my printer gave me a border of 1/16 inch on the top and right of the paper. I used the A4 size on Canon Photo Print application.

I tested my new Canon i960 with a variety of papers. Like most printers, the output is much better when using the manufacture's own paper (as opposed to the cheaper generic paper), but there is no need to buy the most expensive "Pro" paper as neither I nor my wife could discern ANY difference between the two. There may be a benifit to the "Pro" paper that cannot be seen (lasts longer?) but at almost twice the cost it is not worth it - this paper will produce the highest quality prints on your Canon printer (I think they look better than the ones I get from the photo lab).

I have a Canon S300 printer - basically a 2-year-old, fifty dollar printer - and with this paper I get lab quality prints. I can print my 2 megapixel photos at 8x10 size.

With the cost of this paper ($0.50/sheet) plus the ink ($0.50/sheet) coming to $1/sheet, that's not bad for an 8x10. Go for it an impress your grandma.
