KOALA Inkjet Self Adhesive/Sticky Back White Glossy Photo Paper, Label Printing Paper, A4, 100 Sheets

Perfect for creative business owners
I’ve been running a sticker shop on etsy for the better part of a decade now and this is my favourite brand of sticker paper. It’s consistent, it’s reliable, it is fantastic quality, and it’s great value for money. There’s a reason it’s so highly regarded in the sticker making community.I would always recommend getting gloss, even if you laminate with matte vinyl, it just seems to stick better and give a better sheen and image quality through your lamination.It’s super sticky and the print quality is lovely. It does dry pretty quickly but I like to give it at least 5 – 10 minutes before laminating and cutting just to make sure the ink has really cured.I’ve used this with a bunch of different printers. But currently, my favourite set up is with the Epson ET-2820 Ecotank. Printing on Premium Glossy setting. I have a silhouette to cut the stickers and use a mixture of matte and gloss laminate with them to make them nice and water resistant.I have nothing but five star reviews on my Etsy, so the customers definitely love the quality too. It’s super easy to use and because I laminate there haven’t been any smudging issues. The paper is pretty thick so I can’t speak on what it’s like for labels but I know a lot of customers have used them on water bottles/curved surfaces with no issues.If you don’t laminate there will always been an issue with water damage/condensation damaging the print. As well as scratching/scuffing and possible colour bleaching in sunlight. But that will happen with most similar products.As for ease of peeling, I would say it can be hard with die cutting unless you leave a rim to peel with, once you find an edge it’s easy, but finding one without damaging the edge of the sticker can be tricky. What I like to do, if you have a cutting machine like the silhouette is do a second edge cut a few milimetres apart from the true cutline, that doesn’t cut through the backing, peel it off and then you have a nice easy peel sticker for your customers!

Worth the price!
After only one print the difference in quality from my old paper is tremendous!For sticker makers: (can ignore)When I first started making stickers, I bought some cheap matte and glossy a4 sticker paper. I didn’t fully realise how important buying high quality paper is for the print quality. The print quality on the old paper was bad, especially on dark areas for the matte, and the glossy was even worse and was unusable because of ink smudging as the ink wouldn’t dry. After tinkering with settings and even using different ink I wasn’t able to stop the ink smudging.However, with this higher quality, albeit more expensive paper the first print came out dry and oustanding with a nice texture, overal more premium feel. Also the paper cut very well without issues on my Cameo 4 cutting machine.In conclusion, if you are having issues with ink smudging or just looking for some premium, good value sticker paper, I would recommend trying it out.Setup:Printer – Canon PIXMA TS705aInk – INK4U 580XXL 581XXL Ink CartridgesCutter – Silhouette Cameo 4Settings:Glossy Photo PaperHigh quality

Perfect
Fantastic value for money and will definitely be adding this to my favourites list. Holds its shine, easy to print (some jam) and super easy to cut and peel. Highly recommended.

Sheets are bent
The corners of the sheets were bent and it’s affects the printing. The gloss sheet is glossy and shiny but the packaging needs improving

Buon grip

Parfait ! Ce papier et vraiment de très bonne qualité vos créations auront un manifique rendu avec je recommande !

Attention l’encre ne tient pas sur ce papier, j’ai bien une imprimante jet d’encre, et pourtant malgré avoir laissé le papier séché une bonne heure, l’encre s’étale au moindre frottement, papier de très mauvaise qualité à éviter !!
