Epson Exhibition Fiber Paper

Listen NOW…

In this week’s special report, Jeffrey Smith, Epson’s Product Marketing Manager, Professional Media joins host Scott Sheppard for an in depth discussion of the research and development behind their latest line of Exhibition Fiber Paper. Jeffrey explains Epson’s vision in creating a unique fiber paper that when combined with Epson’s Ultrachrome K3 ink offers an incredibly high D-Max and wide color gamut. Epson’s relationships with today’s high end fine art photographers provided an excellent testing ground to ensure their images could be output and represented in the best possible prints.

This paper has a look and feel in B&W similar to their preferred silver halide papers but also offers exceptional performance reproducing color. The paper is known as “Signature Worthy”, because photographers said they wanted their signature on it. Sample packs are available from most resellers.
