Description: Artist and professional photographers require archival print media for their digital fine art
and photography. Now, in conjunction with our new EPSON Archival Ink and EPSON
UltraChrome Ink, we bring you this acid free, 100% cotton rag fine art paper. Available
in 225 g/m2 rolls for flexibility and 425 g/m2 sheets for a museum quality feel, this egg
shell colored cold press paper has the look and touch of Old World handmade paper.
Capable of creating 1440 dpi, high-resolution prints this paper yields brilliant colors
and deep blacks. The paper is made exclusively for Epson by Crane & Co., makers
of fine specialty papers since 1801.
Like all of Epson's innovative media, this paper is engineered to give you the highest
resolution and color saturation possible. Epson's printer driver software actually optimizes the
amount of ink released onto the page, based on the type of paper used. As always, EPSON
supplies guarantee EPSON quality.
Features: - Archivability Excellent. To provide the best protection, keep prints behind a glass plate
or Plexiglas shield with UF3. - Resistance to water Good. Bleeding does not occur with incidental water contact.
However, try to prevent exposure to moisture. - Ink drying time Immediate. (less than 30 seconds) Ink is dry to the touch after printing.
However, it takes 24 hours before it cures and becomes durable. - Handling requirements Use gloves. Use gloves when handling the paper to avoid
smudges and fingerprints on the printing surface. - Mounting feasibility Recommended. Use rag board or other high quality, acid-free
mounting materials. - Lamination feasibility Not recommended. If a protective coating is desired, use a fast-
drying, acrylic spray with a UV absorbent.
