Questions before you print
What is the base and weight?
Photo Rag Pearl is 320 gsm and made from 100% cotton. It has a natural-white shade and a smooth, uniform surface texture.
Is it the same as FineArt Pearl or Photo Pearl 310?
No. FineArt Pearl is an alpha-cellulose fine-art paper; Photo Pearl 310 is a resin-coated photo paper. Their shared “Pearl” name does not make profiles or specifications interchangeable.
What should I check before ordering for my printer?
Check the selected format, 320 gsm weight, thickness and loading path against your exact printer. A suitable ink coating does not establish that every size or roll will feed in every model.
Profiles, media settings and handling
For Photo Rag Pearl, match the ICC profile to the exact printer, ink set and paper and follow the profile’s supplied driver media settings. A driver profile does not establish RIP support. Apply colour management once and make a small test print before a full run. Keep fingers away from the printable surface and protect prints from dust and abrasion.
