Perfect for Postcards
I'm using this paper for printing postcards after a month-long search for the best glossy quality available. No competitor was able to beat this paper, neither in quality nor in price. Very heavy quality, but easily printable on a Pixma Pro-10 and a Pixma Pro-100.\r\nI'm getting only (and very much) positive feedback on this paper by my customers, especially the professional photographers and the shopkeepers where I am selling my cards. After printing 3.000 sheets in 4 x 6" I will use this paper for high class postcards as long as it is available.

Very thick, therefore comes curled
Spencer, May 05, 2023
The paper is just okay. It doesn't seem to take ink super well and prints end up a bit "muddy." My main complaint though is that the pages came quite curled and I can't get them to lay flat even with stacking weight on them for an extended period of time. I understand RRP has to cut the sheets from rolls and it's very thick and stiff, so obviously it won't immediately lay flat. But I hoped they would have done something to get them to lay flat like most of their other paper. The curled paper makes it harder for the printer to print on them, and curled prints feel cheaper to customers. I don't think I'd reorder.

Post card paper 96lb
Jeanne Martin, Dec 20, 2022 - Red River Paper
Perfect thickness for professional post cards . Does print beautifully on my Epson Artisan 1430 printer, but it needs a little help grabbing it . Slow process as I have to feed one at a time. I am ordering an Epson HD XP 15000 highly recommended for heavy card stock. I will let you know if it’s better

The Only Greeting Card Stock I Use
Eve Nagode, Oct 31, 2022 - FoxRunArt.com
I prefer the 96lb. Pecos Gloss for all my greeting cards because it has a heavy professional feel. I wish I could get the 50-card box instead of paying more for two 20-card boxes.
