Why we like it
310 gsm matte inkjet paper for high-contrast photography.
Hahnemühle Photo Rag Bright White combines a 100% cotton base with a bright white shade and a matte finish. Its lightly defined felt structure gives the finished print its surface character. The bright white base is a deliberate visual choice; it is different from the warm Natural Line papers.

Questions before you print
Is this the same weight as Photo Rag 308?
No. Photo Rag Bright White is 310 gsm; Photo Rag 308 is 308 gsm. Keep the exact family name with the selected paper.
Is Bright White free of optical brighteners?
No. The manufacturer reports moderate optical brightener content. Do not describe this paper as OBA-free.
What should I check before ordering for my printer?
Check the selected format, 310 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 Bright White, 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.
