Vivid, Accurate Color for Professional Results
Wedding, portrait, and fine-art photographers are all likely to use luster paper when printing their photos. With Epson Premium Luster Photo Paper (260), an upgraded version of Premium Luster Photo Paper (250), you can bring a richly colored, traditional look and feel to your digital prints.

Premium Luster Photo Paper delivers maximum ink coverage and the highest color gamut available to reduce banding and produce highly saturated photographic reproductions. This heavyweight paper is 10 millimeters thick so images printed on it have a durable, photographic feel, and the paper remains cockle-free. Additionally, a resin-coated (RC) paper base provides a feeling similar to one traditionally processed photos have, and it offers improved dimensional stability without any curl upon drying.

This Ultra Premium Lustre Photo Paper is ideal for use with Dye, EPSON Archival, UltraChrome, and UltraChrome K3 inks, and prints dry almost instantly for easy handling when used with Epson inks.

Customer Reviews

Beautiful Paper
I have an Epson 960 Photo Printer. I have tried various Epson photo papers with the printer and this is by far the best. The premium glossy paper was nice but I could see some bands through the image that were barely percepible even when the printer was new. With the Premium Luster paper the ink lays down beautifully and perfectly and the image has what I can only describe in words as a rich feel to it. Paper selection is very personal but if you have not tried this paper you owe it to yourself to run some of it through your printer. There's a good chance you'll be back for more.

The best looking paper I've used
I use this paper to print out 2.3 to 4 megapixel digital photos on an Epson C44UX printer at 8 x 6. The finish of the paper has a beautiful jeweled look and the paper dries quickly. The colors do not smudge placed inside archival sleeves. In comparison to other papers I have used the past month, it's far superior to Southworth standard glossy paper. Southworth paper actually warps because the gel layer might be too thin or maybe because the paper is cheaply produced -- Southworth paper is essentially paper with a thin coating of something or other. Kodak Premium Photo paper (glossy) was not as good either. The Kodak paper has a cheaper look to it, but maybe it's due to the glossy finish(?). The Kodak paper is also whiter and the colors looked a bit washed out by comparison to the Epson prints. The print output looked like it came from an inkjet printer. Viewed alone, Kodak prints looked okay -- it's when you put them side by side with another paper that's better. HP Premium Plus (glossy) was nearly as good, but the colors also didn't seem to appear as natural. It may have something to do with whatever gel or emulsion Epson is coating this paper with. The results on Epson paper look like photos from the photo lab -- it's hard to believe my forty five buck printer can make this kind of output. Like someone said elsewhere, you can spend hundreds on a high tech printer, but if you get low quality paper, the results are yuck. So, I use my remaining supply of the other papers to print out labels and things, and I use the Epson paper to print out photos that I frame and hang on the wall. This paper is recommended.

Excellent product
I print a lot of pictures in my business. This is by far the best paper I have used. I have several types of printers, Cannon, Epson, HP and this works well with all of them. This is a great deal as far as price goes as well. I did a lot of research to find the least expensive to try this product out and this was the best price and the fastest delivery! Professional or family fun this is professional quality paper.
