Epson has earned a strong reputation for first-class printers, which offer an outstanding combination of quality, reliability and value for money. However, unless these products are complemented by Epson consumables, users cannot expect to fully capitalize on their investment. Epson understands that printing is a process, with printer, inks and paper working together to offer the ultimate in quality output. With this in mind, Epson produces consumables that offer optimum performance throughout a long, trouble-free, working life. This paper-based matte media is for use exclusively with pigment ink. With the current silver halide system, users have never been able to print matte finished photographs unless they go through very complicated processes. This paper is not only a solution to this troublesome process, but it will also attract many professionals who have been waiting for this type of paper.
