The Image Range

Paper chasePapermilldirect have set up a web site with profiles for many of the current desktop printers. This does not yet include the Epson 4000, 7600 or 9600 range and profiles are only available for the Image range on the 2100 printer. These were not fully functional at the time of compiling this review and so we bespoke profiled the Image Photo Gloss.

Photo Gloss 270gsm & 1.3mm Board

This board material is of some interest to members as it enables a print to be placed directly into the mount without further work.Note however that at present only DIN sizes are available rather than the imperial sizes favoured by the frame manufacturers.

The base tone of this paper is a few Lab points blue.There is less evidence of optical brightening agents than the Pearl finish and different profiles would be needed for the two variants. After making a bespoke profile with the 270gsm paper we loaded the 1.3mm board into the 2100. Remember that you have to use the Matte Board Loader and the Envelope setting on the 2100.We used the Photo Black ink variant for our tests.
