FAQs

What type of printer is this paper compatible with?

This paper is specifically designed for inkjet printers.

What is the main advantage of the smooth matte finish?

The smooth matte finish reduces glare and allows for exceptional detail reproduction, making it ideal for fine art and photography where subtle tones and textures are important.

How long can I expect my prints to last?

Due to its acid-free, lignin-free, and 100% cotton base, prints made on this paper are archival quality and can last for many decades under proper storage conditions.

Can I frame the prints immediately after printing?

Yes, the paper is instant drying and water-resistant, allowing for immediate handling and safe storage or framing shortly after printing.

What does '305 gsm' mean?

GSM stands for 'grams per square meter', which is a measure of the paper's weight and thickness. 305 gsm indicates a heavy, high-quality paper stock.

Is this paper suitable for black and white prints?

Yes, the smooth matte finish and excellent tonal range make it very suitable for both color and black and white photography, rendering smooth grayscales.

How many sheets are in a pack?

Each pack contains 30 sheets of paper.

Troubleshooting

Prints appear smudged or have streaks

Ensure the correct paper type and print quality settings are selected in your printer driver. Check that the paper is loaded correctly and that the print heads are clean. Verify that the paper has fully dried if humidity is high.

Paper jams in the printer

Verify that the paper is not overloaded in the tray and that it is correctly aligned. Ensure the paper is not bent or curled; fan the stack before loading. Check printer rollers for debris.

Colors are not as expected

Calibrate your monitor and printer. Use ICC profiles specifically designed for this paper and your printer model if available. Ensure your image editing software is not applying conflicting color management.

Print edges are slightly rough

This is typical of some matte papers. Ensure the 'borderless printing' option is enabled in your printer settings if desired and that the print area is set correctly for the 10x15 cm size.

  • Water resistance adds a layer of protection against accidental damage.
  • Instant drying capability speeds up workflow and reduces handling risks.
  • Professional presentation and storage in the included metal tin.

Cons

  • Limited to inkjet printing technology.
  • The 10x15 cm size may not be suitable for all projects.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This paper is designed for use with inkjet printers. For optimal results, ensure your printer is set to the correct paper type (often referred to as 'FineArt Paper', 'Matte Photo Paper', or a specific Hahnemühle profile if available) and that the print quality settings are appropriate. Always load the paper according to your printer's manual to avoid jams. Store unused sheets in the provided metal tin in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain their condition. Avoid touching the print surface directly. If minor smudges occur after printing, a very lightly dampened, lint-free cloth can be used with extreme caution, but it is best to avoid this if possible. Keep away from excessive humidity.
