FAQs

Can I use this paper with pigment-based inks?

Yes, this paper is fully compatible with both dye and pigment-based ink systems.

Is this paper archival?

The paper features a UV-protected microporous coating, providing high fade and water resistance suitable for long-term display.

Does this paper require special ICC profiles?

While it works with standard glossy settings, using a custom ICC profile for your specific printer model will yield the most accurate color results.

How many sheets come in a pack?

Each pack contains 25 sheets of A4 paper.

Is this the heaviest paper in the PermaJet range?

At 271gsm, it is a professional-weight paper, though PermaJet offers a range of weights for different aesthetic needs.

Troubleshooting

Prints appear muddy or colors are off

Ensure you have selected the correct paper type and quality profile in your printer's software settings.

Ink smearing during printing

Verify that the paper is loaded with the printable (glossy) side facing the correct direction and check that your printer is not set to a 'plain paper' mode.

Paper jamming in printer

Fan the edges of the paper before loading to prevent sheets from sticking together, and ensure the printer's paper feed path is clean.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results with PermaJet Instant Dry Gloss, ensure your printer driver is set to the correct media type, typically 'Glossy Photo Paper' or a dedicated ICC profile for PermaJet papers.

  • Loading: Place the paper in the rear tray with the glossy side facing the print head.
  • Storage: Maintain environmental conditions between 10-30 °C and 30-75% relative humidity to prevent curling or moisture absorption.
  • Handling: Always handle prints by the edges to avoid transferring oils from your skin to the glossy surface, which can cause visible smudges.
  • Storage: Keep unprinted sheets in their original packaging in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the coating.
