Product Information

Full details

Hahnemühle Bamboo Gloss Baryta is a premier fine art inkjet paper designed for professional photographers and artists who demand an eco-conscious yet high-performance medium for their work. By utilizing a sustainable 90% bamboo fiber base paired with a traditional barium sulphate gloss coating, it provides an exceptional aesthetic that mimics the classic look of analogue darkroom prints. While it delivers industry-leading tonal depth and sharpness, users should note that its specialized surface texture and weight require careful handling to prevent potential smudging during the printing process.

The paper has a weight of 305 g/m², providing a high-quality, substantial feel similar to traditional darkroom photo paper.

Is the paper surface matte or glossy?

It features a premium high-gloss baryta finish that provides vibrant color reproduction and deep black levels.

What is the primary fiber source?

Troubleshooting

Ink smearing on the print surface

Ensure the printer head height is set to 'High' or 'Wide' in your driver settings to accommodate the thickness of the 305 g/m² paper.

Prints appear dull or lacking contrast

Verify that you are using the correct ICC profile and that the printer software is set to 'Fine Art Paper' or 'Glossy Baryta' media type.

Paper jams in the printer

Avoid using a multi-sheet feeder; manually load one sheet at a time through the rear straight-path tray.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Environmentally conscious bamboo fiber construction
  • Excellent D-max and deep blacks due to baryta coating
  • No optical brighteners ensures archival longevity
  • Authentic analogue photographic look and feel
  • High 305 g/m² weight provides a premium, substantial hand-feel

Cons

  • Higher cost compared to standard resin-coated papers
  • Requires professional-grade inkjet printer setup
  • The 305 g/m² thickness may cause issues in rear-feed trays of smaller printers
  • Surface is sensitive and should be handled by the edges to prevent oils from affecting the gloss

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results with Hahnemühle Bamboo Gloss Baryta, always ensure you are using the correct ICC profile provided by Hahnemühle for your specific printer model. Due to the 305 g/m² weight, it is highly recommended to use the straight-through paper path (manual feed) on your printer if available to prevent bending the thick media.

Care Instructions:

  • Always handle the paper by its edges to prevent fingerprints or skin oils from marking the glossy coating.
  • Store the paper in its original packaging in a cool, dry place between 15-30°C (59-86°F).
  • Allow prints to dry completely for at least 24 hours before framing or stacking.
  • Use cotton gloves when handling finished prints to protect the gloss surface.
