Was in to Costco today and noticed the packs of 8.5 x 11 paper now
contain 150 sheets and are made in the USA, no longer Switzerland like
original paper came from. Anyone know when this change took place?
Could it be that the U.S. co that has been making the 4x6 packs are now
also making the full size sheets? I've not liked the qlty of the 4x6
sheets as well as the full sized sheet and wondering if the change in
country of origin is also saying change in paper.

I've used the USA made 8.5x11 paper. I haven't compared prints side-by-side
with the new and old papers, but I do like the prints I've made with the
newer stock. Just one person's opinion.

Thanks Burt. Still have a decent sized stash of the older paper so
haven't looked at the Costco stuff in a long time.

Is the surface texture of the new stuff closer to the old or 4x6 that
wasn't as smooth. I've also noticed a slight diff in appearance in
prints between the two older offerings.
