Manufacturer's product description
Epson has earned a strong reputation for first-class printers, which offer an outstanding combination of quality, reliability and value for money. However, unless these products are complemented by Epson consumables, users cannot expect to fully capitalize on their investment. Epson understands that printing is a process, with printer, inks and paper working together to offer the ultimate in quality output. With this in mind, Epson produces consumables that offer optimum performance throughout a long, trouble-free, working life. This paper-based matte media is for use exclusively with pigment ink. With the current silver halide system, users have never been able to print matte finished photographs unless they go through very complicated processes. This paper is not only a solution to this troublesome process, but it will also attract many professionals who have been waiting for this type of paper.
Advantages: Top quality print Disadvantages: quite expensive
...a great paper to use for those special documents which you require to look particularly good. It does have a drawback though it is quite a bit more expensive than the normal packs of paper. 50sheets will cost you in the region of about £5.99 which is about 10p a sheet. This is very expensive for ordinary print jobs so if you do decide to purchase this paper save it for those special projects.
I do think it is good value if you are trying to impress a prospective employer with a great looking sharp and clear CV. If he sees the effort you have put in I do believe he is more likely to look at your CV again whereas with normal paper it's just another bog standard CV. So in conclusion I would recommend this paper for someone who wants to make some kind of impression or quality statement...

--Print Quality--
The actual quality of a print on this paper, is very good. It is by no means exceptional, but the text and diagrams are perfectly legible. You can clearly make out the words and any pictures that you have printed off. Compared with the Premium Choice Paper, i would say that it is half as good. This is fair enough, because after all it is only a rough copy that you can print up nicely at a later point. As far as economy printer papers go, I would certainly rate this over any other. It is very efficient and you can certainly rely upon it.
--Suitability--

Advantages: less than 0.4p per sheet Disadvantages: a wee bit thin
...I've been using this paper now for a couple of years. They seem to go back and forth between a paper packet (nice and recyclable) and a film packet (horrible transparent plastic rubbish), but as at yesterday (August 1, 2007) the pack is made of paper. It costs £1.74 at the moment, and it's been about that price since I first bought it. You get 500 sheets in the pack.
The paper itself is good quality for a value item. I'm not saying it's fantastic, it's a tiny bit thinner (75gsm) than I'd like but you can't expect thick, premium quality paper from a supermarket's own cheapest-you-can-buy-in-the-shops-anywhere brand. If you put two printed sheets of this paper together, you can barely make out that something's printed on the back one and that's good enough for me.
I use the paper in a laser printer at the moment and the results are...
