Looking for inkjet photo paper with following characteristics:
- 4"x6" cut size (will take larger size if not available in this size)
- gloss on one side, matt on the other side
- 9 mil minimum, 10 mil maximum thickness
- 220 to 260 gsm weight
- stiffness comparable to that of regular photos developed from film
- available off-the-shelf in less than 500 sheet quantity
FYI: regular developed photos are typically 9 mil thick and 240 gsm

Gee, all I had to do was look at the box cover.. 240 gsm.. My guess is
that they're printable both sides. I can't tell but my experience has
been that paper is blank on both sides.

Unfortunately most inkjet paper are NOT printable on both sides. They
need special coating that can absorb ink.
If they don't have the special coating, the ink just stays pooled
there and even after a long time, it will still smudge when you touch
it.
