Hi Bob,

"matte photo paper" is a product name of genuine Canon paper
http://estore.usa.canon.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10051&storeId=10051&productId=185852&langId=-1&parent_category_rn=12058&top_category=12051

I'm sorry, I can't find English page so please see this Japanese page.
http://cweb.canon.jp/pixus/supply/paper/7981A001.html

Then look at the spec in 8th row. It says,
-weight: 170g/sq.m
-thickness: 0.220 mm

Hope this helps

Tetsuya
