I've seen Epson Premium 13x19 at about $1.75/sheet, which is OK. The Staples paper is cheapest, $1.30/sheet. What is Luster? Sparkly?)Ĭost is a concern. Is it like matte? (Epson also has Luster. There is also Epson Premium photo paper in Semi-Gloss, but I don't know what it looks like.

I have used HP Premium Plus Soft-Gloss in 8.5x11" sizes, but that finish isn't available in 13x19". The pictures will be framed behind glass, but I don't really trust the Staples paper to resist fading. Staples has no information on this, unlike Epson and HP which have apparently done testing on their papers. I tried some Staples Photo Supreme 13x19" Matte (the only paper of that size I can get locally), and they like it, but I'm not sure how well it will hold up to fading. The people who are getting the pictures like a matte finish. I'm looking for help or advice on a good 13x19" photo paper to print with my Epson Artisan 1430.
