Interesting, never heard of it before. But a perusal of the  description says it is not intended for inkjet or color printing but is for alternative wet chemical printing processes.

I use it not only for platinum/palladium prints, but for palladium over pigment prints. It has a beautiful smooth finish.

This paper is for Alternative process (wet process)
Not really for inkjet
Of cuz, you can feed it into your inkjet printer and there's no harm for that
which I have done Palladium over pigment
