G G Photo Paper 20 Sheets 8.5 x 11 in (21.6 x 27.9 cm) High-Gloss 180 g/m²

G G Photo Paper 20 Sheets 8.5 x 11 in (21.6 x 27.9 cm) High-Gloss 180 g/m² is a bright, high-gloss inkjet paper designed to deliver sharp detail and vivid color for single-sided photographic prints. The 180 g/m² weight provides moderate stiffness suitable for home printing, proofs and small portfolio prints, while the fast-drying coated surface reduces smudging and enables immediate handling after printing.

Advantages

This high-gloss photo paper produces high color saturation and improved contrast on inkjet printers, helping images look more lifelike. The 180 g/m² weight balances flexibility and rigidity for easy feeding through most desktop printers without causing jams. A coated, quick-dry surface minimizes ink bleed and allows prints to be handled shortly after output, making it practical for proofs and small print runs.

Suitable for

• Home photo printing and family snapshots
• Proofs and test prints for photographers
• Small portfolio prints and client samples
• Printed images for framing or albums (single-sided)

When it may not be suitable

This paper is coated for inkjet use and is not intended for dye-sublimation, laser, or pigment-only workflows that require special media. For large-format prints, heavy card uses, or projects that need archival longevity beyond standard photo-paper coatings, heavier or archival-certified papers would be more appropriate.

How to use

Load the sheets into the printer tray according to the printer manufacturer’s instructions, placing the coated side facing the correct direction for your model.

Handle prints by the edges to avoid fingerprints on the glossy surface.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure compatibility with your inkjet printer and confirm which side is coated for printing.
• Consider whether a high-gloss finish and 180 g/m² weight meet your project’s durability and display needs.
• For archival or gallery-quality prints, check if archival-certified papers are required instead.

Usage recommendations

Use printer profiles or ICC color settings when available to achieve the most accurate color reproduction. Store unused sheets flat in a cool, dry place and avoid exposure to direct sunlight to maintain print quality.
