I discovered this early in the life of my printer. I found paper for cheap at Target. Thankfully, I hadn't opened it and was able to return it. -john...

I got rid of my packs of Ilford Smooth Pearl which I used with great success on my Canon printers - but it just doesn't work well with the B9180 - the ink...
I agree John -- if HP can make soft-gloss in their Premium 4x6 and 5x7 size, they should also make it in the Advanced series of papers. I guess that two of us...
