So glad I found RRP
I just got into the reprint business with an older Canon ImagePrograf ipf 765 that was given to me because it was older model and replaced by a newer version. My event center business has been pretty much shut down since March and since I also have art shows here from time to time I thought why not try learning a new craft? I had been printing on plotters for more than 15 years, mostly photos on inexpensive bond paper, nothing really significant or permanent. I did all the research online and Red River kept coming up. I read everything about the papers, service, choices and selections and ordered one roll of Aurora Art White 250. First thing I wondered was price per sq. ft. and that was easy because you indicate it in your postings. I received the paper in a few days, printed a bunch of stuff, then I ordered your sample set of papers and added some Aurora Art White 285 so I have two thicknesses of paper. I printed 150 beautiful Christmas cards for my house artist of a commission he did for me and that was a great learning experience to do a production job. The heavyweight paper is so impressive but thank goodness I have a rotary paper cutter, that's almost as important as the paper itself. I also made some large reprints as samples for my artists to review.
I did all kinds of web surfing in the beginning and know I don't need to try to get a better deal or different paper because the testimonials were all accurate and RRP has everything I need. Turns out the printer is still putting out beautiful images and I'm working with an artist to have another art show this Summer, Covid laws permitting. One thing I immediately learned is I can now take an old, obsolete piece of artwork and recycle the frame with a new print custom made for the frame!
Final comments, your packaging is precise, so thoughtfully boxed with first class materials which I am keeping to preserve prints and storage. Your website is also first class, so easy to order and know prices and specs. And admittedly, it was nice to get in on the sale you had for a novice like me. I may pull the trigger on the canvas paper and get that option out there. I'm hoping in June we can be open and have a big show and all the reprints will be on RRP!

Print my own cards
Bruce Leslie

I'm new at this and was exploring ways to have Thank You cards of my photographs printed as a packet to thank those who have supported any of my multiple projects. One of my friends introduced me to Red River Papers and showed me how to print my cards.
I am so proud of my new photo thank you card packets and grateful to my friend, but also to Red River Papers for producing such excellent quality papers that make it easy to thank people personally and creatively.

Good proofing paper

As a lighter weight paper for testing out prints, it's great. I've made a couple prints on it so far and it has met my expectations completely. It fed through my Epson P900 just fine and the profile accurately reproduced my images.

Paper and profile work well together in a Canon Pro 1000. No problems with the printer transporting the paper, and the manufacturer's profile seems to spot on with both production photos and a standard test image file.

Great everyday photo paper

I needed a paper that was good, yet economical for adjusting colors on my printer and trial photos. This fit the bill. I will use it to make some special photo books for my grandchildren because it is lighter in weigh, yet prints like the more expensive paper. Thanks

I originally purchased this paper as 7 X 10 greeting cards. After printing well over 100 cards, with various types of images, I was very impressed. I decided to take advantage of the overstock sale (33% off) and ordered 200 sheets of 8.5 X 11. I am excited to try some of these same images on the larger format. I will be using it to produce photo books as Christmas gifts
