It depends on the job. For everyday photos and bulk printing, 180–200gsm is plenty and easy on the wallet. For prints you'll frame, gift or handle a lot, 240–260gsm gives a sturdier, lab-quality feel that lasts.

Any standard home inkjet will handle it, the range is made for inkjet models across all the main brands. Just don't run it through a laser printer, which works differently and can't take photo paper. Please make sure you change your printer settings too.

Two things usually cause it: the wrong printer setting, or handling prints before they're dry. Set your driver to a glossy photo paper mode, and give freshly printed photos a minute to dry before stacking them. Storing the paper somewhere cool and dry helps as well.

Perfectly it's the size most albums and photo sleeves are designed around. Print, slot in, done. The glossy finish keeps colours vivid so your album looks the part for years.
