Why does our 170gsm 36” GSM Satin Photo Paper Rolls deliver outstanding results

A lot of technological know how goes into making high performance photo paper. The starting point is a high quality ink receiver layer which ensures ink hitting the surface is accurate and stays where it is supposed to be. This is vital if you wish to print photo quality images, fine details and smooth half tones. Papers for traditional toner based machines typically have a very flat surface (giving a flat image) unlike high quality instant dry satin papers where the surface is made up of tens of thousands of tiny pyramids. Problems such as metamerism or bronzing occur when a lower performance paper is unable to withstand heavy ink saturation when the droplets of ink bleed into one another. This results in colours appearing to shift under different lighting conditions or small colour variations being lost completely. Our 170gram 36” satin photo paper performs impeccably.

Our 170 gram satin photo paper works equally well with dye based or pigmented inks, if you need your photo quality images to be fade resistant we would always suggest using pigmented (see our HP Z range of machines) where there is no compromise on quality but all the benefits of an ink designed to look as vibrant year after year. When you buy our 170gsm 36” satin white photo paper rolls you can be assured that tonal quality and dynamic colour accuracy will be highly impressive. Our rolls are also ideal for proofing. 

When you buy from a specialist print company like Entwistle Group that actually relies on the products it sells customers can be assured they are getting the best quality paper. Very few of our competitors actually print or even test the paper they sell.

Paper Testing

We make huge investments in printer hardware to try and produce the highest quality prints for our customers but without high performance paper results are less than impressive. We have 13 inkJet printers across our four print operations in the North West and have tested a number of different 170 gsm 36” papers and have found Xativa’s product to be outstanding.
