Page 5 of 5 Experimenting with other brands of papers, especially those you might not normally consider, produces wonderful results. For example, Pictorico’s Premium PolySilk Fabric paper creates a print that feels like silk. The unique look of the print makes a strong photograph even more interesting. Media Street’s Royal Canvas delivers a medium glossy surface. It includes a 100 percent acid-free base and is stretchable for framing. As new printers and papers are released, one must determine what profile is available or recommended for the paper type. When printing, the printer’s driver software opens and offers you choices as to the type of paper on which you intend to print. This enables the printer to accurately interpret the colors it’s trying to reproduce and allows it to make adjustments for the different paper surfaces. Some paper manufacturers provide their own profiles for specific printers, which are available for download. Whether or not you’ve ever stepped into a darkroom, the satisfaction of creating a beautiful print is available using an inkjet printer. The bottom line is it’s both gratifying and fun, and it always will be. >Printing Pleasures: PRINTERS Chart (pdf format)   |
