great for printing at home with ink jet printers. I got all the different sizes of this paper and am very happy.
Also, this paper is BORDERLESS; HP makes certain types of paper with these ugly/annoying white, tabs along the edge so you can hold it once it comes out of the printer. I prefer size 5 x 7 because I don't feel the need to always frame larger photos. Those tabs take away from the picture and even if you cut them, the picture still looks "off." The gloss level is great and (so far) none of my photos have faded, which is the main reason I started using HP Premium Paper instead of the Advanced Paper. I have been using the HP Premium Paper with an HP Printer for about a few weeks now and I love it. The print quality is great, the colors sharp and vivid; much better quality that the HP Advanced paper gives.
I have never had a single problem. After reading the previous review I felt I had to respond. I only use HP original ink cartridges for my HP Photosmart 8450 and never refill the cartridges. I don't know whether the problems reported in the previous review were caused by defective paper or possibly defective ink. This paper is just wonderful. I have been using it for more than two years and have printed more than a hundred photos.
I've reported the problem to HP and have asked for a refund, but they certainly aren't going to refund the cost of the wasted ink, and I wasted hours of time. I printed the same images on other papers and two different printers with no problems. DO NOT buy this paper. Not too long after I printed several images on this HP paper, I noticed that the images with deep shadows had developed a solarization effect. On some images it developed within a few minutes, but on others, not for several hours (after I'd taken the time to frame the pictures, not amused).
I am sure if you are looking at this product trying to decide if the money is worth spending, invest in this paper and see the results for yourself. What a diffrence both printer and photo paper made in my printing options. I am sure you will be just as happy with the product as I am. I simply had to remark and let you know if you are looking for a great photo paper to print out your photo's on, this is your paper. I recently updated my All-In-One to the HP Photosmart 3310.
