In Love with Red River Papers

Other than ordering several packs of the small photo card paper from Red River Paper in Texas, this is first time that I have placed an order for photo paper for creating my prints up to 17” x 22” using my Epson P900. A month ago I paid for a couple of their Sample Packs to see how I like the different surfaces. Up until now it has just been easier to order a box of Koala paper in their 8x10 and 11x17 sizes from Amazon when I need it. I really wanted to have some 16x20 or 17x22 paper on hand now that I can print that size with my new Epson P900. Koala doesn’t offer that size, and there was not an economical product available from Amazon. So it was time to bite the bullet and put an order in to Red River and see how it goes.

I ordered 1-100 pack of 8x10, 1-50 pack of 11x14, and 1-50 pack of 17x22, 68 lb Ultra Pro Satin Photo Paper from @redriverpaper

I was pleasantly surprised at the ease of ordering directly from the company - only taking 5 days to have the package shipped across the border to Canada by FedEx - no extra duties or tariffs added on to the cost (only the USD to CAD conversion) —— and the fact that the package was received with the boxes of paper in prestige condition. The paper that I get through Amazon always seems to end up with a ding or slight crease in one of the corners.
