Koala Ultra Premium 5x7 Satin Photo Paper for Inkjet Printers - Water-Resistant Semi-Gloss Finish, 50 Sheets (72lb) - Perfect for Photo Albums, Scrapbooking & Home Decor

Koala paper seems just as good as camera brand photo paper but at a fraction of the cost. Better packaging to protect the sheets as well.After printing a bunch of smaller prints, 8x10s, and a dozen 11x17s, I cannot wait for the 13x19 paper to be available!I think this has a great sheen to it. It makes my print look really nice. It's not matte or glossy. It has a soft shine to it, which is perfect for what I wanted.The only problem I'd say, is that they did come a little bent on the corners.. I don't know if I can fix them for selling. Idk if this is a packaging issue or a delivery issue, but that's the only problem I had with them. Otherwise, this works really well for what I was looking for.Good product being used to print family photos. Matte FinishI’ve bought their paper several times. I love it!I needed paper quickly and thought I’d try this. Okay, I was cheap and tried this stuff. I sell my work, and quality is important of course. This satin finish reminded me of the old fashioned stuff from the drugstore, but the color was alright. I could live with this until I noticed in the lower right corners were black smudges. I had printed about 5 pictures before I noticed it. I ran some cleaning scenarios and tried again and still had the same issues. I switched to a different paper and it was clear on the better stuff. Sorry guys, this isn’t gonna work for a professionalUnfortunately because of how it was packaged and shipped the corner of the whole stack of paper was bent. It looked like a small bend at first but my Epson EcoTank ET-8550 inkjet printer smeared and dripped ink in that area of the print, causing enough quality issue I couldn’t use it for what I needed.If you are not a fan of glossy photo paper, this paper is a great choice. The slight luster texture makes it very nice for color printing and the price is very reasonable.Good Price. Fast Shipping.This is a white base paper AND IT makes a difference! I bought Epson glossy paper in 4X6 and letter size and tried Koala brand for the satin finish they offered in 5X7in. Could not get Epson in Satin.. The difference is big and it is white! The Epson has a slight creamy yellow cast that you can see clearly when you have all papers side by side. Both Epson size are creamy color while Koala is a pure white. The photos attached is next to a window so I put both on either side and you can see a big difference! If you need pure white for printing your images go with Koala. If you like a creamy feel go with Epson. We learn something everyday...Not paid to write this review.Good price and very pleased with the quality of this paper. I use an HP Envy ink-jet printer and was worried about ink smudges etc. This printer was perfect for photo's and the ink dried immediately. No smudges, no worries. I'll be buying more photo paper of this brand again soon.My first order was Great I used it for Christmas cards love the photo paper . so I ordered it again and did not receive it yet, so I bought other paper from Staples to complete what I was working on. I won't be ordering any more unless amazon uses a difference delivery service, The Delivery company the use is Intelcom Express terrible delivery service. I wish Amazon would stop using them, My next step will be to cancel my Prime. PS The Photo paper is AWESOME.Tried to print photos with this paper and the photos had white vertical lines. I contacted Canon customer support and they said this paper is low quality and to purchase different paper. I did and it resolved my problems. It was this paper that was the problem.I have been buying HP paper for very long and this paper looks just as good or better. I printed on both HP and the Koala paper and my wife keep picking the Koala print as the better of the two. Blacks absorb solid nice and even. No streaks or lines.
