I have an Epson ET-7550 Photo printer that will print photos or anything else using up to 11x17 inch paper. As I was going through the different 11x17 inch papers available, the watercolor paper descriptions intrigued me so I decided to give one a try. This is a 100% cotton rag paper that is 15 Mils thick which makes each sheet quite heavy, but It had no problem feeding through my printer. It dries in a few moments and is also supposed to be water resistant. I’ve done both color and black and white prints and the both came out beautifully. It has an embossed pattern that is supposed to make it look like linen and I think I would be happier if it did not. The matte finish becomes a moot point once the print is behind glass in a frame. It makes my color prints look more like paintings or drawings than photographs and I like that. The only thing I would add is that most of the watercolor papers I looked at seem to bhquite thick, so make sure your printer can handle thicker papers.

I print with a Canon Pro-100 and it comes out great on this Inkpress Paper!

I have started making the majority of my prints on this paper. It does not give the traditional photo look, but people will walk past my traditional prints to see these. The texture gives a fine art quality and the paper adds a nice, warm tone. I have printed landscapes, city scapes, fine art and portraits on this paper. The portraits were a pleasant surprise, especially fine art nudes in both color and monotones.
