Our Expert Opinion

Heavier cotton paper with pronounced texture and matte finish. Brings tactile, handcrafted quality to prints. Pairs well with painterly images and traditional artwork.

Description

A heavily textured, mould-made cotton matte paper for expressive fine art prints.

Epson Legacy Textured uses a mould-made, 100% cotton base with a pronounced watercolour-paper texture and a matte finish. The coating is designed to accept a high ink load while producing deep blacks, a wide colour gamut and gentle tonal transitions. Choose it when you want the texture of the paper to be a visible part of the finished work.

At a glance

  • Highly textured matte surface on a mould-made base.
  • 100% cotton with no optical brightening agents.
  • 305 gsm weight and 20 mil thickness.
  • Acid- and lignin-free; pH buffered.

Where it works well

  • Artwork reproductions where a watercolour-paper texture is appropriate.
  • Fine art images intended to show the character of the paper.
  • Exhibition prints and portfolios on textured cotton media.

Questions before you print

When should I choose Textured instead of a smoother matte paper?

Choose Textured when you want the paper surface to contribute visibly to the work. A smoother paper can be preferable when you want minimal surface texture. Make a test print when small detail or skin tones are central to the image.

Will this paper work with my printer?

Check the exact printer model, supported media thickness and loading method, not just the paper dimensions. Rolls also require the correct roll handling and core support. Tell Tricera your printer model and chosen size if you need help checking suitability.

Which ICC profile and media setting should I use?

Use the settings and ICC profile specified for the exact printer, ink and paper combination. Epson provides profiles through its printer support downloads. Follow the profile instructions and apply colour management only once in your print workflow.

Does archival paper guarantee a particular print life?

No. Print life depends on the ink and paper combination, lighting, display, handling and storage. Follow Epson’s media guidance and protect finished prints from surface damage. A general paper specification is not a print-life guarantee for every printing system.

Heavier cotton paper with pronounced texture and matte finish. Brings tactile, handcrafted quality to prints. Pairs well with painterly images and traditional artwork.
Maximum contrast for painting reproductions. The bright white base delivers stronger highlights than Cold Press Natural, making colours pop. Smooth, moderate texture works great for watercolour but avoid portraits—texture creates unwanted skin detail. Choose this for drama and brightness.
Most popular for painting reproductions. The natural white point closely matches traditional canvas, letting you get remarkably close to original colours. Same smooth texture as Cold Press Bright. Artists with bright, high-contrast work choose Bright; everyone else picks this.
