I'll second that - I use it as my standard paper in a HP Deskjet 560C. As the paper is very smooth, the ink does not tend to absorb into the surface as it does on the cheaper papers. It does, however, 'dull' heavily coloured graphics a little and I find that switching to special coated paper for this use obviates this minor problem. -- Neil Barker.
