Premium velvet-textured paper combining classic fine art quality with Epson printing technology. Smooth yet tactile. Vibrant colors, deep blacks, smooth tonal transitions. Collaboration between Somerset papermakers and Epson. Premium velvet quality.
Enhanced Matte Paper on rigid board—same quality, but self-supporting. Popular for trade shows and retail displays. Ready to use straight off the printer, saves mounting time and cost. Good color with matte finish.
Maximum contrast for painting reproductions. The bright white base delivers stronger highlights than Cold Press Natural, making colors pop. Smooth, moderate texture works great for watercolor but avoid portraits—texture creates unwanted skin detail. Choose this for drama and brightness.

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.

Tricera is a Canadian-owned authorized Epson Pro Graphics dealer specializing in Epson professional printers, genuine Epson inks, and a curated selection of fine art and photographic papers from Epson, Hahnemühle, and Moab. We work with print labs, universities, photographers, galleries and creative studios across Canada that depend on professional printing systems for reliable, high-quality output.

With more than 20 years of hands-on experience working with Epson Pro Graphics equipment, we do more than list specifications.
