Epson S041637 19inx13in 260Gsm Velvet Fine Art Paper

Just what I wanted

I have been taking photos since I was [...] and only recently began to take this once in a blue moon hobby to heart. I went out and bought a new digital camera, learned how to use that, and then invested in an Epson Stylus Photo R1800 printer. Although never trained, people say I have a good eye which I believe is true, or else I wouldn't bother. I had been printing my photos on the Epson Luster photo paper and was very happy with the results, but wanted something softer and more artsy for the photos I chose to convert to watercolors. I read the previous review on this type of paper and decided to give it a try. I am overwhelmed with the results. If you want good quality artistic photos, USE THIS PAPER. When they first print out they are somewhat disappointing, but low and behold, as the paper and ink mesh - all I can say is OMIGOD! Tremendous. Buy it try it. You'll love it and you'll end up signing up for the next art fair!

I do my own fine art prints and this paper works fantastic. I use the Epson 2200 and epson has custom settings built in already for this paper for maximum printing. Highly reccommended!!!

I had previously sent an email with pictures addressing this issue (about 2 weeks now), and as of this writing I have not heard back.
Amazon usually packs the shipments well, but this wasn't the case with the last one.

The bubble wrap was wound around very loosely (1 layer), and then the item was put in a larger box without any
additional padding. It must have been dropped, hitting one corner, as ALL the paper got bent on that spot.

Annoying, and a bit of a waste of time and money.

This is a great fine art paper, and I have been using it for years as a professional photographer. My complaint is with the way Amazon still packs it for shipping. I have just received another pack of paper with damage to the corner. Package of paper put in bottom of a box that was too big, with just some packing paper put on top. Now requires trimming in order to use, as I cannot take the time to return and replace. If they would just pad the corners properly, all would be well.

Please request Amazon to take better care in packing photo paper. Perhaps if enough people express concern, the message will get through...

this paper has a very high end feel and prints beautifully...so glad I discovered it!
