Very nice paper

2008-03-27
I really liked this photo paper. It works great with my Canon MP970. It is nice to have 5x7 paper for giving to family and friends to frame.

True photo lab quality paper!

2008-03-13
I am using this to print photos taken with my Canon Powershot SX1000I on my Canon Pixma photo printer. The quality is awesome! The paper produces very nice colors and photo lab quality! I am stuck on this paper. After trying many other brands, this one's a true gem!

Expensive, but absolutely worth it

2007-12-18
Tired of paying the higher prices associated with Canon brand photo paper (versus any other brand of photo paper), I decided to do a little quality comparison right at home. I bought some less expensive Microsoft photo paper that was also termed "high gloss" photo paper (by the way, you'll disover that there is clearly no industry standard of "high gloss" - it seems anything can be branded as high gloss no matter what the quality). I decided to try to print out a low-resolution photo on each type of photo paper and compare them both. For starters, my Canon printer would not even let me choose the option of low resolution when I selected any other type of photo paper aside from Canon. So I had to settle for printing a medium-resolution photo on the Microsoft paper and comparing it to the low-resolution photo printed on the Canon high gloss. AMAZING what a difference there was - the Canon paper beat out the Microsoft paper by far, even with low resolution. Furthermore, even when I swtiched to high resolution for the Microsoft paper, there was no comparison to the low resolution Canon paper. Canon really knows how to make the best photo paper - pay the price, it's well worth it.

Excellent quality Canon paper

Excellent quality Canon paper. Feeds through the printer great; no jams and produces excellent quality photo prints.

Great photos

I use this with my Canon i9900 photo printer and the results are very good. People can't believe I printed the photos myself - they're really photo store quality. I haven't really experimented with cheaper paper, so maybe there's a better deal out there, but for now I'm not messing with a good thing.

Great photo paper

2007-07-05
I used this paper to print borderless photos from my Canon i9100 printer for the first time, and was very impressed with the results. I have not experienced fading with this photos, as they are newly printed, but that would certainly affect my rating down the line.

Great Images, Short Life Span

2007-03-29
As other reviewers have pointed out, if you own a Canon printer you will typically get the best results using Canon ink and paper. It is also true that at the time you print the Photo Paper Plus provides images that are virtually indistinguishable from the more expensive Photo Paper Pro. I have printed identical images onto both for the purpose of making the comparisons and am highly confident that no one would be able to tell without the most extreme side-by-side comparison.

There is, however, one big problem with the Photo Paper Plus. The images will fade much more quickly than the Photo Paper Pro. I have had images in a photo album that faded significantly just one year after printing. The album was kept in a cool, dark place but it made no difference. The Photo Paper Pro is designed to last for decades under similar conditions, but this paper is not. Unfortunately, Canon makes 5x7 paper only in Plus... no Pro paper is available.

I have taken to using this 5x7 stock solely to generate test prints. Once I know I have a keeper, I print it onto an 8x10 sheet of Photo Paper Pro and crop away the excess. If you want to have photos either in albums or picture frames that retain vivid color you would do well to avoid the Photo Paper Plus. If you only need prints to look good for the short term than by all means buy this and save the money.

Nice pictures

I have used the Canon photo paper for several years and I love it. The paper feeds through copiers easily and the phot quality is excellent. I have not experienced any fading of pictures or anything. I highly receommend this Canon product.

Purchase of Canon 5" X 7" Photo Paper

2007-01-12
Using a Canon Printer and Canon Ink I have found non Canon paper does not produce good quality photo prints. I prefer to use 5" X 7" paper which is difficult to find. A search of Amazon produced several sources at VERY good pricing. The process was fast,efficient and produced a very satisfactory result.
