Why we like it
A metallic luster photographic paper that adds depth with a more restrained sheen.
Epson Metallic Photo Paper Luster combines a resin-coated photographic base with a subtly textured metallic finish. The luster surface reduces glare compared with a glossy metallic presentation while adding depth to the photograph. Choose it when the metallic character supports the subject and you prefer a less reflective surface than Metallic Photo Paper Glossy.

Questions before you print
How does Metallic Luster differ from Metallic Glossy?
Both offer a metallic photographic appearance. Luster has a subtly textured, less reflective finish; Glossy gives a shinier surface. Compare them in the lighting where the print will be viewed.
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.
