Why we like it
310 gsm satin inkjet paper for photographic prints.
Hahnemühle Photo Rag Satin combines a 100% cotton base with a white shade and a satin finish. Its soft cotton surface gives the finished print its surface character. The satin effect appears in printed areas while unprinted borders remain matte.

Questions before you print
Is the whole sheet uniformly glossy?
No. Printed areas have a soft satin sheen, while unprinted areas remain matte.
Is it the same as Photo Rag Baryta?
No. Photo Rag Satin is a 310 gsm cotton paper with a satin effect. Photo Rag Baryta is a separate 315 gsm paper with a high-gloss baryta finish.
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 Satin, 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.
