Epson has announced a new line of fine art papers compatible with their various printers, providing new printable solutions for photographers and graphics artists on improving photo printing quality output.

Optimized for use with Epson inks, including new Epson UltraChrome(R) HDR ink technology found in the Epson Stylus(R) Pro 7900 and 9900, the new Signature Worthy Hot Press and Cold Press Papers yield richer blacks, smoother tonal transitions and an expanded color gamut to produce the most advanced fine art prints.

The Hot Press papers offer a smooth surface and Cold Press papers offer a textured surface. In addition, Hot Press and Cold Press Bright offer a bright white point, while the Hot Press and Cold Press Natural offer a warm white point.

“The paper a photographer chooses for an exhibition really makes a difference in the overall effect of prints,” said Greenfield-Sanders, leading portrait photographer. “When using the Epson Hot Press Bright Fine Art Paper with the Epson Stylus Pro 9900, I was able to achieve new levels of extreme detail and sharpness, along with superb skin tones in my recent exhibition The Black List. The look, the touch and the feel of the prints on the Epson Hot Press Bright paper was irresistible.”
