I just saw the post on a photo printer come up. I have an Epsom Picture Mate and searching for what paper you use? I am not happy with what I am using. Are you using glossy or matte?? I prefer matte, but not happy with what I am currently using. Suggestions welcome.

Staples Supreme Satin photo paper is my go to. https://www.staples.com/staples-supreme ... uct_564118
It's pricey but I've found it for a lot less on ebay.

I have a different epson photo printer. I use Epson premium glossy photo paper. I think the photos come out great. The regular glossy is not as good as the premium glossy. I haven’t tried the matte.

I have an Epson printer also.  I use glossy paper.  I buy the Office Depot brand because it's cheaper than the Epson brand and it works great.

i don't have the same printer as you but i have learned to use the same manufacturer's photo paper for the best results.  good luck in finding what works best for you!  i despise glossy photos and always try to go for matte whenever possible, but it seems a lot of companies who make printers and paper only offer glossy options.

I used to use the HP Premium Plus matte finish but I didn't like how it printed with my new EPSON printer.  I buy the EPSON Ultra Premium Glossy now and love it.  It's a nice heavy paper and the photos print out amazing.  I will never use any other paper.  I priced it online and found that it's more expensive than when Staples has it on sale.  Amazon is always OOS and obviously because they have the lowest price.  I buy the 25 count pack when it's on sale and get 2 of them.  Right now it's $20.59 for the 25 count and worth every cent.

I use matte paper, but I have found that with my Epson, the Epson paper gives the best results. Go figure!  I get Epson Presentation Paper Matte and Premium Presentation Paper Matte.  The only difference is the Premium is thicker and double-sided (I use it for printing layouts).

Thanks for all your recommendations and suggestions. I appreciate it. Will continue on my quest for a different paper.
