Canon2768B022 Photo Paper Pro Platinum, 8.5 x 11 Inches, 20 Sheets

I use with my Canon 9000 Mark II older photo printer. Still get quality prints and I think it takes good care of printer.

I’m using this paper to print photos on my epson ecotank. The quality of the prints I’ve made have been great, just follow instructions for allowing the print to fully dry before handling or framing.

I use this paper with my Canon Pixma Pro 100, and it renders beautiful, color-accurate prints that match my monitor (which is calibrated). No other product comes close. Not great on plain paper, however.

Incredibly awesome paper. This paper is insane...definitely the first time I've EVER printed a picture that had the perfect sheen, thickness and quality of feel that these do...the kicker?...you can handle this IMMEDIATELY after printing. They've got some wildly awesome quick-drying tech in these bad-boys. What a deal!Canon has made the fastest comeback in printing AND print media for me and for others I know. Best quality to cost ratio of any company and best all around.If you want the VERY BEST (by a tiny margin) and don't mind spending 2-3x as much...buy Epson stuff....If you can immediately tell the difference in print quality compared with canon pixma products, you have a trained/educated eye in the media printing business. It's indeterminable by the above average fellow.

I am not a professional, but I have been into photography for about 25 years. I now print through Lightroom 3 or PS5 using a calibrated IPS monitor with a Canon 9000 MkII and use only Canon ink. What I don't print myself I print through Bay Photo, who usually do a fantastic job, so I tend to compare my prints to those from Bay Photo.I was not happy with Canon's Glossy II or the Photo Pro II because I felt colors were a bit washed out and the blacks were unimpressive, so I tried the Platinum Pro. To compare the Platinum Pro to the Photo Pro II, I printed a series of 10 photos at 4x6 that ranged in color content from starry night skies, sunrises, reef fish, amusement park rides, wedding shots, macro bug shots, landscapes, and B&W covering many of the color matching problems I've ran into. YMMV, but here's my observations:First off these two papers are very different. Physically, The Platinum Pro paper achieves final color after only a few hours while the Photo Paper Pro II takes about 48 hours to fully set. Also, the Platinum Pro paper feels stiffer, but this may be due to a resin coating on the paper, and it definitely lies flatter after it is dried. Color wise, the difference in "most" of the photos is amazing and very evident - the Platinum Pro is nothing less than impressive. As Canon claims, the Platinum Pro displays a noticeably expanded red gamut and much deeper blacks. The difference is significant and can be amazing with some prints (e.g. sunrise over Mt. Haleakala - simply spectacular on the Platinum Pro, nice but unimpressive on the Photo Pro II). All pics with blacks or dark shadows, such as tuxedos in wedding shots, were noticeably darker and more saturated in these areas. Shots with lots of red are where the color differences are most noticeable, as Canon would have one expect, but blue skies (e.g. a carousel shot against a bright sky with the saturation bumped up in PS5), also were noticeably more saturated.For some photos, the increased red gamut and saturation and the deeper blacks makes the shots "pop" in a way I have not seen with other Canon papers, and usually only see on metallic or other commercial prints. The concern I have with the Platinum Pro is the expanded red ends up being a bit over saturated on people shots, particularly with pale skinned people with a hint of red tone. Some wedding prints were clearly over saturated in this area. Also, the deep blacks do seem to cause some loss of detail (those tuxedos again), though IMO this is offset by the richness of the blacks. The overall reservation I have with the Platinum Pro paper, and the reason I give it only 4 stars, is the overall affect on a lot of shots is over saturation. Some people argue that Canon favors the "Disney" look in colors and there is a bit of this with the Platinum Pro paper. This is definitely not the case with the Photo Paper Pro II, but that paper has a slight under saturation problem in my hands. I like the "pop" on many of the shots and know, now, what to expect, so it is an easy task to tone down the red (or blue) saturation, particularly in flesh toned shots if I need to.Where the Platinum completely fell apart in my tests was with B&W prints. The good part is the paper produced B&Ws with an amazingly neutral bright white, whereas the Photo Pro II looks much closer to the Glossy II paper, and both have a noticeable tint. Unfortunately, there is a noticeable loss of detail in the Platinum Pro paper with B&W. The loss of detail was, for me, very unexpected and completely unacceptable. I did not see this loss of detail in the color shots. I've only printed two B&W on this paper and will print more to further test this, but detail was clearly lost in both prints. The Photo Pro II and the Glossy II produced much better B&W prints.Overall, the types of photos I print look better on the Platinum Pro, so it will be my new [Canon] paper of choice for color prints, but I will have to adjust the saturation for flesh toned prints. For B&W? Well, so far, I have not tried any Canon product that impresses me, at least not on this printer. There are lots of other choices out there that are favored for B&W printing, and the PIXMA 9000 MKII is not noted for it's B&W capabilities anyway, so for this review I was more interested in color prints, and the Platinum Pro is without a doubt an impressive paper.

Very good!

I've always used good photo paper for the printing of photos and graphics. One long-time friend of mine emails pictures of her teenage grandchildren, especially during special occasions in their lives.Just recently, I printed, and sent to my friend, several group pictures on four different kinds of photo paper, including Canon Platinum Pro. I also asked my friend to take a survey for me: Ask the kids, themselves; plus, give me her own opinion, of which prints were the most desirable.Those printed on the Platinum Pro were chosen as best by everyone -- and I wasn't really surprised.I should note, perhaps, that my computers and printers are top notch, and all prints I sent to my friend were excellent. Still, those printed on the Platinum Pro showed an astounding amount of detail. The results were easily as good as what one would expect from a professional studio; maybe even betterI definitely recommend this product. It would be great for anyone, especially for those who want professional quality photos.

Great paper / great price(on sale)
