They sell ten sheets of glossy A4 inkjet photo paper,I have not used it yet but the blurb on the packet reads good, and at £1 for ten sheets got to be worth a go :) .

Not tried the A4 photo paper but got a 50 pack of 6x4 a few weeks ago from Poundland (or was it the 99p Store). They were OK but the results were far inferior to those using the genuine Epson photo paper supplied with my R300.

I had a batch the other week and the results were great. Was a lot better than the rubbish I had from Dixons.

a friend of mine got a pack of these the other day and they are pretty good, especially for the price. i think jessops had some epson glossy 6x4 packs 2 for 1. they were packs of 50 so it worked out at 100 sheets for £8ish. not sure the exact price, didnt have enough money on me otherwise i would have bought some, because i find with these things that when you see an offer, ink, paper etc its best to buy.

More of this in weston super mare store. I think this is brilliant paper. Do not buy the ones in yellow boxes which are inferior (that maybe kodak throw offs ). The ones in light blue covers are as good , if not better than branded stuff I have !

I`m more than happy sticking to the Costco one (125 sheets Kirkland Professional Glossy Injet photo paper) A4 for £12.90, and Wow what picture/print quality with the Epson R300 which I`ve started using. And its 260g/m - very thick.

This is 260gms as well.

This Poundland paper seems to be back in the shops. Recently noticed at Telford, Boscombe,Worcester,Swindon etc.... Am I alone but I use a Canon Pixma IP4000 and although this paper is not 100% waterproof its produces fantastic results ! I tried using Ilford and Imation paper plus some Epson and it blows them away.Just purchased loads of this stuff....since its 260 gms and very thick I would not be surprised if its used by the likes of Smiths,Jessops,PC World etc for their branded stuff.
