Epson Standard Proofing Paper (240)

A semimatte proofing paper for commercial and publication printing workflows.

Epson Standard Proofing Paper (240) is designed for commercial and publication proofing. Its paper-white values are intended to support simulation of a GRACoL Grade 1 printing condition.

Questions before you print

Does the paper replace calibration and proof verification?

No. Paper selection, calibration, the printer and ink combination, RIP settings and measurement all contribute to proof accuracy.

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.
