![]() Old Matte Photo Paper Supreme, which prints very black, has a slightly rougher texture to it-almost grainy. Today, I realize that the paper was surrupticiously replaced prior to the rebranding. I erroneously assumed the Staples paper changed when the packaging and name changed. The new product, Ultra Premium Photo Paper, features red, white a blue packaging, It's basically card stock, not photo paper.The old Matte Photo Paper Supreme was amazing-probably the best matte photo paper on the market. It was in a yellow package with a photo of either a bride in a field or a bride and child. Staples replaced its high-end matte photo paper, called Matte Photo Paper Supreme.

The manager and another guy came out and helped us get there (the boys were all little and couldn't push). ACK!! I ran up to the window and asked if someone could push us over to the gas station right next door. :) While I was sitting in the drive-thru AFTER ordering our drinks, we ran out of gas.
