Product Information
Full details
The Hahnemuhle FineArt Baryta 325gsm is a premium, high-gloss inkjet paper designed for professional photographers and fine art printers who demand exceptional image definition and deep color saturation. It serves as an authentic digital successor to traditional darkroom Baryta papers, offering unmatched Dmax and superb reproduction of fine grey tones, though its heavy 325gsm weight requires a printer capable of handling thick media through a straight paper path.

FAQs
Is this paper archival?
Yes, Hahnemuhle FineArt Baryta is acid-free and lignin-free, meeting high archival standards for longevity.
Can I use this with pigment or dye inks?
It is optimized for professional pigment-based inkjet printers, though it can work with many high-quality dye-based systems.
Does the paper have an optical brightener?
The brilliant white tone is achieved with trace optical brighteners, consistent with the expected aesthetic of Baryta papers.
How should I clean the surface if it gets dusty?
Use a very soft, lint-free microfiber cloth and wipe extremely gently, or use a clean air blower.
Can this paper be used for double-sided printing?
No, this paper is designed for single-sided printing only due to the specific coating on the gloss side.
Troubleshooting
Head strikes or smearing on the edges of the paper
Ensure you are using the printer's 'thick paper' or 'manual feed' setting and confirm the paper is perfectly flat before printing.
Colors appear washed out or muddy
Ensure that the correct ICC profile is selected in your printing software and that color management is not being applied twice (once by the app and once by the printer).
Paper jamming in the feed
The paper is likely too thick for your printer's standard auto-feed tray; switch to the rear specialty media feed.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure success with this paper, confirm that your printer supports media weights up to 325gsm. Many desktop printers require a rear-feed manual tray to avoid bending the stiff paper, which can cause paper jams or head strikes.
- ICC Profiling: Download the appropriate ICC profile from the official Hahnemuhle website for your specific printer model to ensure color accuracy.
- Loading: Always use the straight paper path if available to prevent the paper from curving or cracking.
- Handling: Wear cotton gloves when handling the paper to prevent fingerprints, as the glossy surface is susceptible to oils from the skin.
- Storage: Keep rolls in their original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once printed, allow the ink to fully cure for 24 hours before mounting or stacking to prevent sticking.
