Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Do you think there is too much texture for 15" headshots in this paper? Would the Fibre be a better choice?

A: It is a matter of opinion if a paper has too much texture or not so I recommend testing a smaller size first such as this 8.5x11: https://bhpho.to/474yyYQ

Q: 2. What does the C represent?

A: US C refers to the paper size. In this case 17x22

Q: 3. Is the paper grain parallel to the short side or the long side? Apparently the label is marked GS if it is short grain.

A: There is no way we can know in advance what batch we'll get from Moab, but yes if it has a GS it will mean 'short grain'. Moab cuts the paper from a roll & it depends how they slice it up. Although the paper is smooth people that want to fold the paper (i.e. for cards) would be very specific in the grain direction so the paper folds smoothly.

Q: 4. Can this paper be used in a Canon Pixma Pro 9000 Mark ii printer?

A: Your printer specs show handling paper to 1.2 thickness and the Moab description on this paper lists .41 so you should be fine. I have an Epson printer, but I looked up specs on your printer. Be sure to use the proper icc profile. If Moab offers one for your printer that is a further indication there should be no issues in your use of it.

Q: 5. Do these prints need to be sprayed with a UV lacquer protectant spray after printing, to keep them from fading?

A: If you are using archival pigment ink they should not need a UV lacquer though it cannot hurt if they will be in bright sun. If you are not using pigment inkjet a uv spray should help with longevity.

Q: 6. Is the paper short grain or long?

A: You'll probably have to work directly with B&H to get a specific grain direction for this particular paper. I've got 8 1/2 x 11 and it is grain long; another person mentioned they had 8 1/2 x 11 and it was grain short. The grain direction for this paper is listed on the back of the box as part of the lot number; you will either see a two-letter code of GS or GL within the lot number (e.g. 21055GL0218).

Q: 7. Is it long-grained or short-grained?

A: Hi Philip, Most of the Moab 13x19 (A3+) sheet sizes are Grain Short. The grain direction is indicated on the reverse side of the Moab label. Embedded within the lot number are the letters GS or GL, indicating Grain Short or Grain Long

Q: 8. Can this paper be used with an Epson R2880 printer?

A: Yes. I have done so. Very good.

Q: 9. can I use this in my laser printer?
