I am extremely disappointed in the 'new' Premium Plus soft gloss paper. It is thinner and the quality of the print is, in my opinion, far below what the product used to be. I know it dries faster but that is not as important to me as the quality of the picture. And we are still charged the same, I guess because it is supposed to be better. I tried printing on the Advanced paper mode as it was suggested to someone in a review that I read. That did not work. If anything it was worse. You may marvel that I still recommend the paper. It is still better than others I have tried. I am just extremely disappointed with HP and their supposed improvement. I will be searching for another paper.
HP store quickly exchanged photo paper without any run around/hassles. They took my word for my dissapontment with photo paper. I recieved quality paper and am very satisfed with HP store and will only order on line from them in the future.
I have tried every permutation possible, but the sheets keep jamming my HP 5510 all-in-one and the printer reads "out of ink" every single time while it's jamming. I don't understand why the paper won't feed, except that maybe it was not made with the 5510 in mind. I would rather have known that up front, but will keep it since I'm considering buying a new HP all-in-one. I hate to buy a new one because the 5510 still works admirably and I have few problems with it, but I guess I'll be forced to move up to a newer all-in-one if I want to use the 8.5 x 11 photo sheets.
The quality of the product is not in question; it just doesn't work in my admitted older HP all-in-one.
This was the first time I used HP Premium Plus Photo Paper, soft gloss. I was impressed with the results. If you want a change from the glossy pictures, this is a pleasant change. Plus the pics don't stick to glass.
I ordered the Premium Plus with auto sense and got this. The quality is so different. The Auto Sense is much better than the quick dry. I would rather have the longer drying time with beautiful quality than a quick dry that is not good enough. With the Auto Sense I have even stopped going to a Professional Photographer because my digital comes out sooooo incredible so NO I would not recommend this product but I would Recommend the HP Premium Plus Paper with Auto Sense. And I would appreciate someone from HP telling me how I can buy more of the Product I want and not keep receiving a far less quality product such as the Instant Dry! HELP!
I have purchased several photo papers and not been happy with them, but not this paper and I will continue to purchase. I will also keep extra box on hand for emergencies.
