Most inkjet glossy photo paper is made from plastic coated paper. This means the back side is not printable with inkjet inks.
For a number of projects though, it would be nice to be able to print on the back of your glossy photo paper. That's why Red River Paper offers a number of glossy products that have a plain paper back side. You can print text and light graphics on this side of the paper.
We recommend printing the plain paper side first, then the glossy side.
