Product Information
Full details
Hahnemuhle Photo Lustre 260gsm is the ideal choice for professional photographers and artists who demand gallery-grade reproduction quality with a balance between gloss and matte finishes. It offers excellent archival properties and vibrant color reproduction, making it perfect for detailed photography and high-end art prints; however, users should note that the A3 cut-sheet format requires an inkjet printer capable of handling large-format media without specialized roll-feed support.

FAQs
Is this paper archival?
Yes, it is acid- and lignin-free, which meets high standards for archival longevity.
Can I use this with any inkjet printer?
It is designed for high-quality inkjet printers that support the A3 format.
Does it require a specific ink type?
It performs exceptionally well with both pigment and dye-based inks.
How many sheets are in the pack?
This specific package contains 25 sheets of A3 paper.
Is the paper surface scratch-resistant?
While it is durable and water-resistant, it should still be handled with care to avoid physical abrasions.
Troubleshooting
Prints appear muddy or too dark.
Ensure you have selected the correct 'Lustre' paper profile in your print dialogue settings and that your monitor is calibrated.
Paper jams during printing.
Ensure the A3 sheets are perfectly aligned in the tray and check that your printer's media guides are adjusted to the width of the paper.
Colors look washed out.
Verify that you are printing on the coated side of the paper and not the back; the print-ready side is usually brighter and smoother.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best results, ensure your printer settings are configured to match the paper profile; selecting 'Photo Paper Lustre' or 'Semi-Gloss' in your printer driver is essential for correct ink density. This paper is fully compatible with most pigment and dye-based inkjet printers. To ensure longevity, store the paper in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once printed, handle the sheets by the edges to avoid transferring skin oils to the print surface. If framing, it is recommended to use acid-free materials to maintain the archival nature of the print.
