HP C6817A Brochure and Flyer Reviews

Customer Rating:
Summary: HP changed the product - for the worse. Ignore all reviews more than 3 months old.
Comment: I've been using HP's Glossy Inkjet Brochure Paper (C6817A) for several years, and up until my most recent order, it's been terrific. Good color rendition, fast drying time, great hand. Unfortunately, though they kept the name and the product ID number, they changed everything else about the product. It doesn't take ink well (everything looks pale and washed-out, even rich black), and the hand is horrible. It actually squeaks. Didn't care about drying time, since the pages went straight from the printer to the recycle bin, and the box went straight back to Amazon. The former version of the product was the only decent 2-sided glossy inkjet I'd ever found. Now there are none.

Summary: Paper for CD Inserts
Comment: I love this paper. It's finished on both sides for ink jet printing. When I prepare a cd insert, it's great to be able to use both sides. It saves me time, storage space, and paper. The quality is very good!

Summary: Bad Experience
Comment: This paper was absolutely horrible for me. I have a Cannon i960 printer and I tried printing on all settings, the ink just sits on top of the paper and won't soak in. When it finally dries the photos are grainy with dark blotches. I used to use double sided Kodak paper and it work beautifully, but I can't find it any more.

Summary: Terrible with Photos
Comment: This looked like the perfect solution for a double-sided paper, but it doesn't work at all with my Epson Photo 1200 on any setting (and I've tried them all). The ink doesn't dry fast enough, and any dark parts of the photo turn out completely blotchy when it finally does dry. I've kept it around for a few years, and keep trying it on different projects, but have never found one I can make it work with. It's going in the trash.

Summary: Great for Xmas Newsletters
Comment: I have been sending out family Christmas newsletters for the last ten years and have come to really like this paper. I usually mix in the family accomplishments and opportunities with lots of color photographs and lively blended color borders. In short, I have found nothing that compares to this paper when it comes to inkjet printing for it's ability to hold the ink without bleeding and maintaining a crispness of color that rivals photographic paper. I print on both sides and have absolutely no problem of any kind. It also folds exceptionally well which is essential for envelope stuffing. I am very happy with the results that I can achieve with this paper.
