Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
HP's everyday photo paper is designed for everyday photos, reprints, test prints and other medium-quality applications. Compatible with all inkjet printers, this photo paper has a semi-gloss finish on both sides, providing both increased thickness and a shinier printing surface than plain paper. The 4-by-6.5-inch precut sheets have extended tabs for handling, so you don't smudge the ink, and are 6.5 ml thick, so printing doesn't bleed through. The stick-resistant, textured coating accepts photo printing modes, resulting in rich colors perfect for home or school uses. The everyday photo paper also has a brightness rating of 89, 98% opacity, and less than 20 HU of smoothness. 100 sheets of 165 g/m2 weight photo paper are provided in each package, and HP provides a 90-day manufacturer's warranty.
This sturdy photo paper with a semi-gloss finish is affordable and easy to use for printing images, whether you're at home, work, or school.

Customer Reviews

To the above peoples comments, it doesn't work with Canon or Epson because it's designed to work with HP printers. If you have a Canon buy Canon photo paper. If you have an HP, it's really not that bad of paper at all. I've gotten some really nice use out of the paper with my HP printer.

I can't understand all the negative reviews. This is a very good paper. Sure, it's light weight, but they tell you that in the product description (6.5 mils). You can still tack them up on a bulletin board or paste them into an album, just as you would with a heavier-weight paper. The paper doesn't seem to want to curl, so handling is not a problem.
What counts most, at least for me, is the quality of the image, and the images look very nice. I did a comparison print with the Everyday Photo Paper, HP Advanced Photo Paper, and HP Premium Plus Photo Paper using the same image file on an HP Photosmart D7560 printer. You can see a difference in the contrast if you look closely, but it is quite small, and you might get the same difference with any semi-gloss paper versus full glossy. The color is the same. Give a person a print on the Everyday paper without something to compare it to and they will just think it is a terrific print. Perhaps some of the other reviewers were using non-HP printers or non-HP inks.
One strange thing -- the paper is labeled 4 by 6 inches but actually measures 4 by 6 1/2 inches and there is no break-away tab. They say it is for "handling." Not a problem, just an oddity.
I intend to use this paper for most of my prints from now on because it costs about half of what the other papers go for.
