Similar to the Luster but with a more refined, "pearly" sheen. It is a heavier-weight RC paper that feels more substantial in the hand. It’s an excellent bridge between standard photo lab prints and true fine art cotton papers.
Top-performing photo paper featuring traditional "orange peel" luster surface of silver halide prints. Professional photographers' favorite. Works with pigment and dye printers. Cut sheet version of Premium Luster 260. Excellent color accuracy.

We know paper

We regularly test fine art and photographic papers from Epson, Hahnemühle, and Moab to better understand how different media perform with professional inkjet printers and pigment inks. While Tricera specializes in Epson printing systems, the Hahnemühle and Moab papers we carry are designed for use with any professional pigment inkjet printer, including Canon and HP, making them a strong option for photographers, print studios and production environments across Canada regardless of which printer brand they use.
