I use a lot of HP "everyday photo paper matte finish", "inkjet 36 lb bond bond normal". That's what it says on the label. It works very well in my Epson Stylus Photo 1200 printer. Inexpensive, too. I buy it in 100 sheet packs. I highly recommend it. It prints great maps using Delorme Street Atlas, as well. Great colors and finish. Framed under glass, of course, you can't tell it from glossy but I like it mounted glassless because I am a "matte freak". Ilford makes a pearl finish I'd like to try, too.
