Very poor quality paper
You new Premium Plus glossy photo photo paper is very poor quality and not worth the money. I used to exclusively use your Premium Plus glossy photo paper for all of my photo prinrting needs. However, with the change to the new "non-premium" Premium Plus glossy paper I have switched to another brand of photo paper. I find that Epson Ultra Premium Photo Paper Glossy is an excellent photo paper and gives the results that I used to get with your Premium Plus glossy photo paper.

Stunning results with HP Photosmart 7510 printer
I think any problems other reviewers may have had with Premium Plus may be with HP's communication, not with the paper itself. When I bought my HP Photosmart 7510 printer almost a year ago, an HP representative told me it was calibrated for the new version of Premium Plus. At the time, I took that claim with a grain of salt.
Only recently did I take the printer out of the box and start using it. I can report that my prints on the new Premium Plus Glossy have been nothing short of stunning. I've ordered some of the new Premium Plus Soft Gloss to see what results I obtain with that.
To get the sharpest prints, with the most saturated and accurate colors, I find I have to set the printer's Preferences as follows: Media: "HP Premium Plus Photo Papers" and, under Advanced: Output Quality: "Maximum dpi" and Real Life Technologies (sharpness): "On."
I learned this partly by trial and error, partly by finding and downloading the User Guide from the HP web site, and partly from links in the User Guide to HP Support. I only wish this information had been included in the printed brochure that came with the printer.

No longer worth the money.
I've been a loyal user of Premium Plus paper for several years with outstanding results and great comments on the image quality from other photographers. Having run out of the 'old' style PP paper I purchased a good amount of the new and 'improved' PP paper and have had nothing but trouble with it - it won't feed properly into the printer (C5180) despite changing all the settings that HP recommend for pre 2012 HP printers along with cleaning rollers etc and when I have managed to get it to print a page the quality, depth and colour are slightly different when dry to the old PP paper and really a little disappointing. All other papers I use feed nicely through the printer. Using 5-6 sheets a time to get one print that feeds properly isn't on! Annoying because the printer and old style paper gave such faultless results.

This paper is not premium at all
I have been a long time user of hp premium plus photo paper with my HP photo series 7300 for many years. Always satisfied in the past until my recent prints. Will be returning this paper immediately. Prints look laughable in quality compared to prior product. Followed HP's recommendations and no improvement. Quality is FLAT, greenish, lacks depth on blacks and highlights ARE BORING. SO Disappointed. If they can't figure this out switching to all canon products. Printer, ink, paper. You guys ruined a perfectly outstanding product!!!!!
