I have been using this paper for six months and it produces very high standard prints. Having two Canon cameras (EOS 30D and IXUS 860 IS) I have made the decision to use a Canon PIXMA printer (MP610)and therefore Canon paper. Over many years I have come to the conclusion that to get the best results you need to use the printer manufacturer's paper and ink to get the best results. For me this works whether the printer is HP, Epson or Canon.
In the case of Canon and this professional glossy paper I think the results are outstanding - sharp pictures, excellent depth of colour, good colour balance and nice thick paper. The cost is not cheap - approaching 60 - 70p for an outstanding A4 print including Canon ink. This is still cheaper than getting a similar print done commercially. The prints keep well if you keep them in a folder and display only as necessary. I have seen no fading of colour or degradation of picture when these precautions are taken.
Top notch paper for top notch prints on a Canon printer.
