A few weeks back someone posted a message about their use of Kirkland
paper (Costco house brand). I've recently starting using this myself
and am pleased with the results. I prefer it to the Epson Glossy
Photo Paper I was using prior. Very smooth and glossy finish. I even
ran some water over a print on this paper. Blotted the excess water
off and let sit for a while. When looked at later I couldn't see any
telltale signs that print was wet.

Time will tell about fading and/or color shift but for now considering
the cost (125 sheet @ $19) I'm going to continue to use. With their
money back guarantee, you can't go wrong giving it a try.

Paper is 69 lb (260 g/m2) 10 mil 8.5 X 11" Made in Switzerland.

great results with canon I960 and oem and mis inks. I experimented with
several settings and settled on glossy photo paper, manual, and intensity
down to -2 or -4 as there was a bit of oversaturation. Some may like the
extra saturation, but I felt that skin tones were better when the saturation
was slightly reduced.
 
I use a Canon i960/OEM inks and just use their reccomended settings that
come with the paper.

FIND the results as good so far and similar with the best Canon paper.
