Superb Photo Paper
Ilford is well known in photography circles for making quality photo paper for dark room use, so I am not surprised at the quality of their inkjet photo papers. I use this paper exclusively to produce photos on my Canon Pixma iP5000 printer. I started off using Canon products as recommended but found the finish of those papers to be very fragile to moisture and scratching. Even with very careful handling I couldn't even get the photo into my albums without surface scratching. Matte finish Canon papers did not give the vibrant results I wanted. I tried several other brands as well, but could not get the true photo-like results that I wanted. I stopped searching after my first print on Ilford pearl finish paper. This paper is heavyweight and feels like a standard photograph. If you don't know it's printed on a desktop, you won't be able to tell without a magnifying glass. The finish is incredibly durable and can be passed around from person to person without damage. The base of the paper is a very bright white, leading to nice contrast in photos, bright whites, and vibrant colors. I do have to adjust the yellows (-15) for my printer, but this isn't a flaw, just a facet of printing on a desktop printer. I have had photos hanging in frames under standard glass on my walls for almost two years now and haven't had any issues of color deterioration. My albums are equally stable.

Overall an excellent photo paper!
