Difference Between Resume And Card Stock Paper

I use this Epson 4x6 paper to print out pictures that I affix to Strathmore card stock. Between my printer and this paper the images come out beautifully. Initially I was going to order through Epson directly and also checked out Amazon but got a much better deal with B&H. The only issue is that unlike some items from B&H it took about 7 days for them to arrive.

This is my second Falcon Paper Cutter. The first one lasted over 20 years and went to several continents with me and cut reams and reams of paper and card stock. It finally broke this year and I was heartbroken as I was having a hard time finding a new one. So I was ecstatic when I discovered that it was still made and was available at a good price. I like the fact that you can easily replace the blades and the cut is sharp and crisp every time whether cutting several sheets of paper, photos, or card stock. It's a great little cutter!

I purchased this for headshots so I can print my resume on the same paper rather than having to attach it with staples or tape. It prints excellently and serves the purpose and I prefer it to glossy as it doesn't get affected by light conditions. Also, there was no ink smudging right after printing and for the past few weeks I haven't had a single issue. Add this to the speedy delivery, intact shipment and helpful customer service prior to purchase and you've got yourself an excellent deal.

I mixed it up into 2 dilutions, 1:1 and stock and used both. With Ilford paper I don't see much difference between dilutions but with Oriental paper I had problems with staining with the stock dilution. That being said, it gives better tones and detail especially in the highlights than I ever saw with Dektol. Mixing is a pain, I would wear gloves and a mask from the time you open the plastic bag the box comes in until it is a liquid and you have cleaned up and sealed any residual powders. I wound up sealing the box and all the little bags even the instructions in a zip lock before disposing of it. I made myself a little sick handling it before mixing it without gloves and mask.

I purchased this as an upgrade from my 3750 for 2 main reasons: The screen is larger and I wanted the rear feed and rear slot option. (The rear feed will feed paper from a pop-up area located at back of machine. The rear SLOT will feed paper straight through from back to front (after removing a piece and making an adjustment). The rear slot will print on media up to 1.3mm thick. Anyway - after setting up the printer, I was anxious to experiment with these features (mostly the rear slot, as I wanted to create my own decorative card stock for use with die cutter). I could only find ONE sentence in the entire user manual that addressed selecting the rear slot, and it was a NOTE: It said to select the rear slot, choose the option with the appropriate paper size. I kept choosing 8.5 x 11, but did not realize there were further options. (See first photo). However, to choose rear feed, you go into different settings, first choosing layout, then printer settings, then paper source. See 2nd photo. I think these 2 options should be located in the same place. (I use MacBook with Monterey). I also found one other limitation working from the printer console. There is a nice feature to print decorative card stock or lined paper. If you choose lined paper, you are offered the rear slot as an optional paper source; if you choose decorative card stock, you are not! I believe the rear feeder (which loads and prints without curving the paper around the way the main feeder does) will meet most of my card stock printing needs. After much research, this feeder can handle card stock of 100 pounds (or more).

Super happy with our new printer. It does what it says it will do. Fantastic that I can again use card stock, heavy paper and index cards. Of course, it also prints beautiful photos.

I bought this printer a little over a week ago. I have run envelopes, and offsize cut sheets. I have printed over 2000 images. Blk ink, as well as color. I have run card stock, and gloss paper. YES. Regular gloss paper, text and cover as sample tests. It prints double sided on text weight only. Heavy card stock is to thick to make the turn, so best to run double side manually. It has a custom page size setting which for me comes in handy. Image is sharp and crisp. Have yet to test t-shirt transfer paper. I likey. :-)

I am using this product for my watercolor paper and card stock. I love it! My paper lies flat and will keep for quite some time.

This is an amazing paper. I love the thick quality, almost like a card stock. I never really experienced the curling issues some have commented on. One thing about printing on my Epson P800 printer. First set the printer for thick paper in the maintenance tab on the touch screen. Then in the Epson utility, set the paper thickness to 13. Make sure that you have both the front and rear supports set correctly as the paper will have ink smudges on the end if it sags as it exits the printer.

I use this paper for printing photos that I then make into note cards by cementing them on card stock. The color and overall appearance is excellent. It is my choice of paper.
