In the reviews I read that this paper for color prints and graphics is not really suitable. Striking was that all of these buyers have a Canon printer. I have a HP Deskjet F2224. I have brilliant color prints. The surface glistens fine so that you can take the word brilliant almost literally. Maybe not for everyone, but otherwise no running or blurring. A pressure at its finest. Certainly not of the highest quality, but the photos are on plain paper anyway. The typeface in normally in black characters is second to none!
