Product Information
Full details
Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Satin 310gsm is designed for professional photographers and fine art printers who demand high-detail reproduction with a sophisticated tactile quality. Its primary benefit is the unique surface finish, which provides a rich, satiny sheen on printed areas while leaving unprinted regions with a classic matte texture. While this paper offers exceptional archival longevity and visual depth, users should be prepared for the specialized handling required to accommodate its 310gsm weight and specific surface finish during the printing process.

FAQs
Is this paper double-sided?
No, Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Satin is designed with an ink-receptive coating on one side only.
Can I use this with dye-based inks?
This paper is optimized for high-quality pigment ink systems, which offer better archival stability.
Does the paper require a specific drying time?
While it dries relatively quickly, it is recommended to let large-format prints air dry for 24 hours before stacking or framing.
How should I store unprinted rolls?
Store in the original box, kept in a cool, dry place with a controlled humidity of 40-60%.
What is the best way to frame these prints?
Use acid-free mounting materials and ensure the print does not touch the glass directly by using a mat board or spacer.
Is this paper OBA-free?
You should check the specific technical data sheet for the MPN 10643037 on the Hahnemuhle website, as specific content can vary by batch.
Troubleshooting
Colors appear washed out or dull
Ensure the correct ICC profile for your specific printer model and ink set is applied in your printing software.
Head strikes or ink smears on the edges
Increase the platen gap settings in your printer driver to accommodate the thickness of the 310gsm paper.
Inconsistent finish across the print
Verify that your printer's media settings are set for 'Heavyweight' or 'Fine Art' to ensure sufficient ink load and drying time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best results with Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Satin, ensure your printer is set to the correct media type, typically listed as 'Fine Art' or 'Heavyweight Matte' in your driver settings. Because this is a high-grade 310gsm paper, use the rear manual feed slot on your printer if available to avoid sharp bending of the paper path. Always download the specific ICC profile from the Hahnemuhle website to match your printer and ink configuration. For long-term care, store prints in an acid-free environment, avoid direct exposure to sunlight, and handle the surface with clean, dry hands—or better yet, use white cotton gloves to prevent oil transfer to the unprinted matte areas.
