Product reviews for Premium Plus Photo Paper, 11.5 mil, 8.5 x 11, Glossy White, 25/Pack

I've been a loyal user of Premium Plus paper for several years with outstanding results and great comments on the image quality from other photographers. Having run out of the 'old' style PP paper I purchased a good amount of the new and 'improved' PP paper and have had nothing but trouble with it - it won't feed properly into the printer (C5180) despite changing all the settings that HP recommend for pre 2012 HP printers along with cleaning rollers etc and when I have managed to get it to print a page the quality, depth and colour are slightly different when dry to the old PP paper and really a little disappointing. All other papers I use feed nicely through the printer. Using 5-6 sheets a time to get one print that feeds properly isn't on! Annoying because the printer and old style paper gave such faultless results.

I originally bought the less expensive HP photo paper and it was fine. Then upon reordering, I decided to get the Premier most expensive paper which was a mistake. Now when I opt to print a photo, I get 2/3 s of the photo on the Premier paper and 1/3 of the photo on regular copy paper. This has happened now several times and I am wasting ink. I will never order the Premier paper again.

I spent extra on this paper thinking that it would be worth it to have good prints. It jammed repeatedly in my HP C6180, smearing photos and wasting huge amounts of ink. I thought the problem was with the old printer. Just tried with brand new HP8600 and the paper will not feed through the printer at all. The box says that this will work with all ink jet printers but it doesn't even work with HP printers. Save your money!
