Our take

Why we like it

Resin-coated semimatte producing rich, high-resolution images with minimal glare. Perfect for professional photographers and high-quality displays. Sits between matte and semigloss finishes with soft sheen and excellent detail.

A smooth, low-sheen photographic roll paper for images where glare matters.

Epson Premium Semimatte Photo Paper (260) combines a resin-coated photographic base with an extremely low-sheen finish and no pronounced surface texture. Choose it when you want a photographic presentation with more restrained reflections than glossy paper. Epson designs the paper to support strong colour and density.

Questions before you print

Is semimatte the same as cotton matte paper?

No. This is a resin-coated photographic paper with a low-sheen finish. A cotton matte fine art paper has a different base and surface character. Choose according to the presentation and handling you need.

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.
