Title: Is my paper genuine
Post by: wavemachine on July 30, 2013, 08:48:09 PM
I took delivery of some Canon Photoglossy II A4 Paper from Amazon recently (PP-201) the colours looked slightly muted to normal, whilst examining the paper I noticed on the back it didn't have the watermarked canon logo printed on the back, I checked the other sheets and they are all the same.

Does anyone know if Canon has stopped water marking their paper?

I print almost all my pics on Canon Pro-Glossy II paper and I also noted recently that they don't have any watermark or print on the back. I do think it's the same paper and I like that it's 275 gms ( a little thicker). I don't think you've been duped.

I also use canon pro-paper semi gloss  (a little more expensive) and 260 gms and I LOVE it!!

Cheers for the reply, I didn't think I had been duped but thought I would check.

I am going to try some of the permajet paper as that has had good reports, at 32p a sheet and free ICC profiling it looks a nice option.
