Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. In anticipation of receiving this paper (I just ordered it), I went to Ilford's website to download the icc profile for my Canon ipf6400 printer (the description says "The paper is compatible with both dye and pigment based ink systems..." When I select the paper on Ilford's website and put in my printer and this paper combination there's no profile associated for this printer / paper combo. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

A: They may not have made a profile for the Canon IPF6400 printer. So in that case I would suggest using the closest Canon option. Canon Premium Fine Art Smooth.

Q: 2. Can I use this paper with an Epson R3000 printer? Seems to be too thick. Thanks.

A: Yes. The Ilford GALERIE Gold Fibre Gloss Paper (5 x 7", 50 Sheets) is compatible with the Epson R3000 printer.

Q: 3. Hi, what media type should i use with an epson p600 printer?. the icc profile says eam media type, but i dont know what it means. The ilford website did not answer my question, this is why i am asking here. Thanks.

A: EAM stands for Epson Archival Matte. This is the correct media type choice for this printer. To download the ICC profile for the Ilford GALERIE Prestige Textured Cotton Rag Paper, go to this link: http://bit.ly/1RPJYVb

Q: 4. Is this the right paper for my Epson R2880 and XP 800

A: Yes it is compatible with your 2 Epson printers.

Q: 5. Can you print double sided on this paper?

A: I've just read three "No" answers to the question, "Can you print double sided on this paper?" But the paper in question is Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Book & Album paper (Short Grain, 8.5 x 11"), which is clearly described as "Double-Sided" and that means both sides can be printed. And to my personal knowledge it can be printed on both sides. That's why it's a good "Book" paper. The answer to the question is "Yes".

Q: 6. Is this paper double sided?

A: No this paper is single sided.

Q: 7. Does this paper incorporate optical brighteners?

A: Manufacturer doesn't specify. What it sounds like, although it's acid-free it does have some brighteners for color stability.

Q: 8. What is the name of the color of this paper?

A: It is a warm white.

Q: 9. Can spray protectant be used on the surface after the ink drys? I love this paper but the surface is very delicate.

A: The Ilford GALERIE Metallic Gloss Paper can be sprayed with a protective spray such as this Moab: https://bhpho.to/3uuLzvE

Q: 10. Is the paper surface in the Photo Rag Book & Album heartier than the regular Photo Rag from Hahnemuhle? I find that surface very soft. In other words, will the Book & Album paper stand up to being handled?

A: The Photo Rag® Book & Album is exactly the same paper base as all of there Photo Rag® products. It is exactly the same surface. I hope this helps.

[Cotton Rag] Perfect thickness and silkiness 5

[Matte] I use a Pixma Pro 100 & I have never used fine art paper that gives my such a distinct watercolor look. It is unbelievable. 5

[98%] Been using Ilford products for many years and the quality is superb 5

[Cotton Rag] The 8.5x11 Fibre Silk provides me with a paper which holds strong color and provides good detail for my initial work print. Then I proceed to a larger format 17x22. The only draw back right now is the 25 sheet package is the only one available. I normally use the 50 sheet packages. 5

[Matte] This is my absolute favorite paper for printing portraits (Epson 4900). The skin tones are better and truer (if that's a word) than with any other paper I use. 5

[2.8 lb] Nice 'luster' paper with the look of Ilford fiber. 5

[Cotton Rag] I love this paper. I usually print black and white, but it works very well with color, too. 5

[25x Sheet Paper] Ilford Galerie Gold Fibre Silk has been my go-to paper for both black and white and color pigment prints, when I want a semi-gloss finish. Its long tonal range and good separation in highlights and shadows won my heart after I tested it against about a zillion other papers. However, Ilford has regrettably discontinued it, and it's becoming quite difficult to get. They have replaced it with Gold Fibre Gloss, which, despite its name also has a semi-gloss finish, and almost the same tonal response, but without optical brighteners, the whites are supressed just a little bit--enough to make me and a lot of other users search for an alternative (Canson Photographique II, which also seems to be unavailable at this time). It's a tough moment for semi-gloss users! This made me re-discover my love for matte papers, like the Moab Entrada Rag Bright 300. 5

[98%] I had been using the Ilford Galerie Prestige Smooth Pearl to print my pictures previous to discovering this. Having accumulated printing experience, I then opted for a more luxurious and thicker stock. I had tried products from Canson and Hahnemuhle but they didn't give me as good results as the Ilford papers. So I returned to the Ilford brand, and this is along with the Gold Fibre Silk are now my choices for when I need matte and lustre surfaces, respectively, to print with 5
