Technical Overview
Engineered specifically for inkjet technology, this fine art paper optimizes ink absorption and drying characteristics to produce sharp edges and smooth gradients. The textured matte surface reduces glare while maintaining excellent color saturation across the entire gamut of pigment and dye-based inks.
The paper's acid-free, lignin-free, and chlorine-free composition ensures long-term archival stability, preventing yellowing and deterioration over decades when stored under proper conditions. This makes it suitable for museum-quality prints, limited edition reproductions, and important documentation requiring permanent preservation.

FAQ
What type of printers is this Epson fine art paper compatible with?
This paper is specifically engineered for inkjet printing technology. It works with both pigment-based and dye-based inkjet printers that can handle heavier paper weights up to 340 g/m². Always check your printer's specifications for maximum paper weight capacity before use.
What does the 96 brightness rating mean for print quality?
The 96 brightness rating indicates this paper reflects 96% of light, providing a bright white base that enhances color vibrancy and contrast. Higher brightness values generally produce more vivid colors with better differentiation between light and dark areas, making this paper excellent for photographic and artistic applications.
How does the 98% opacity affect printing results?
With 98% opacity, this paper prevents ink from showing through to the opposite side, making it suitable for double-sided printing when needed. The high opacity ensures colors appear saturated and true without interference from the reverse side, which is particularly important for artwork and professional presentations.
What are the archival properties of this fine art paper?
This paper features acid-free, lignin-free, and chlorine-free construction that prevents yellowing and deterioration over time. These archival properties ensure prints maintain their original appearance for decades when stored under proper conditions, making it suitable for museum-quality reproductions and important documentation.
What is the advantage of the textured matte finish?
The textured matte finish reduces glare and reflections while adding tactile quality to prints. This surface enhances color depth and detail reproduction, creating artwork that looks authentic and professional. The texture also helps hide minor imperfections and provides a traditional fine art paper feel.
How many sheets come in each pack and what are the dimensions?
Each pack contains 25 sheets of Letter-sized paper measuring exactly 8 1/2" x 11" (215.90 mm x 279.40 mm). The 25-sheet quantity provides sufficient volume for professional projects while maintaining freshness, as the paper remains sealed until use to prevent moisture absorption and curling.
