Newbie question

What A4 photo paper are folk using for a high quality glossy finish.

I've bought a pack of HP photo laser paper (glossy) and it isn't!

Can anyone point me in the right direction.

What printer? Some papers do not work well with some inks.

Hi there

I've bought HP photo laser paper 220 glossy and using a Epson photo r220.

Since then I've bought Jessops ink jet paper 260gsm A4 gloss.

The HP is dull and the epson is glossy!

I use Epson Premium Glossy in my Epson R200 with Epson ink - the results are
very good. It's a bit expensive at 50p a sheet or so - but well worth it for
the depth of colour and the gloss.
