Default Photo paper

I thought I'd let everyone know, Aladi have a great line in photo paper. It costs
£4.99 for 50 sheets and in my view gives better results than other more expensive paper from the big named brands.

Perhaps Harrods can get you some from Aldi then.

Worth knowing - thanks - I'll give anything a try at that price.

Mainly Epson Glossy simply because I have an Epson printer, but I have tried the new I.T.Works 255grms glossy paper and the quality of finish seems to be very close to Epson's finest.
