Canon photo paper

[Jake]

I just got my printer up and running and would like to know about some of the different paper option. The printer is the Canon PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II.
Would love to hear about what photo papers you like(or don't like). Some are pretty pricy, so if you tried any of those I would love to hear.
Right now I'm using the "Pro Platinum" and it looks great, but it's high gloss and I prefer a matte or satin finish.

Canon has some called "Museum Etching Paper":
Canon Direct Store- Fine Art Museum Etching Paper LTR - 20 Sheets

And a fine art rag made by Hahnlemuhle:
Canon Direct Store- Fine Art Paper Photo Rag FA-PR1 13x19 - 20 Sheets

Of course there are many 3rd party ones also. Any and all info would be great, especially if you have the same printer.

Jake,

I have owned the 9000 for over 2 yrs. now and love it. I use Red River Paper exclusively...66 lb. Polar Metallic, 60 lb. Polar Matte and their 68 lb. Ultra Pro Gloss. Great company with outstanding service and products...and a Texas based company.

Jake,

I think I might have some Red River Ultra Pro Satin around here somewhere if you want it. I'd offer to take it to work so that Andrea can come get it but I don't have to go back until January 2nd. :) Let me know and I'll look for it.
