PROFESSIONAL PROFILE

Natalie Dybisz aka Miss Aniela

"Using an HP Photosmart C4580 set to best photo quality, I chose Arctic Polar Luster as my paper choice because the paper's surface shows the saturation of the image in full, without distorting the shadow areas, and without the hindrance of reflection"

RR Paper 4 x 6 Polar Matte

Cheryl Martin, Dec 09, 2023

This is the best 4 x 6 paper I use. The Polar Matte is just right. I do recommend this paper, especially printing for your scrapbooking albums.

Unique size available

Print hobbyist, Nov 14, 2023

I have printer that can only accept paper that is 8.5” wide. Red river paper has an 8.5 x 25” glossy paper which allowed me to print panoramic images. The images are sharp, with accurate colors. The paper arrived on time and without damage due to the great packaging. Wayne

Paper roll too big to fit SC-3170 Epson Printer

Alan Richards, Oct 11, 2023 - https://alanrichardsart.com

I love the paper, but the 3" core and a 100' roll is too big for this Epson printer. Typically, I have to remove about 1/3 of the paper to have it fit the carrier. Anyone else have this problem with this roll size.

David, Ink artist

David Crosby, May 06, 2023

Absolutely love this paper. Works extremely well with ink techniques I have been doing. Thick enough, bright white, and a durable, silky smooth finish.

Also appreciate the company's concern for my satisfaction with every aspect of the transaction.

I'll be back!

Great for art prints

Elena, May 04, 2023 - https://www.mismonsta.com

This paper is a dream to work with in my Canon Pixma Pro-100! And the included instructions and documentation on color management/printing profiles saved me a lot of headache and ink. I've already gone through a pack and on my second set of 100. Highly recommend.

Best satin finish paper out there!

Cindy Coats, Apr 06, 2023 - www.cindycoats.com

Love this paper.. I use it with my HP Z series..I do wish they would pad the core to eliminate creases in the last 8 or so feet of the roll. That’s my only suggestion. Otherwise terrific paper!

UltraPro Satin

Pete R., Jan 28, 2023

RR makes many kinds of papers for different projects. The paper I like is UltraPro Satin because it's such a smooth paper and colors pop. This is my go-to paper for most occasions.

Paper bending

Derrick Doty, Dec 24, 2022

Love the paper but after the first 35 paper printed the remaining 15 are useless, they are bent at the edges causing my printer heads to hit the paper. That's a major issue for me because that could damage my heads.

Satin paper

Steve Eichorn, Aug 17, 2022

I use the satin most of the time for my race photos. I use the 8x10 size and the print size of 7x9 in a small black frame. it gives me a nice white border, so no mat is needed and i can sell the prints much cheaper thin if using a mat and frame. My prints come out vibrant and sharp with no color bleeding. I tell all my clients about RR paper.
