FAQs

Is this paper suitable for professional photography use?

Yes, the 260gsm weight, high DPI support, and strong gloss finish make it excellent for creating professional-looking prints at home or for portfolios.

Can I use this paper with my laser printer?

No, this paper is exclusively designed for inkjet printers. Laser printers use a different printing technology that can damage this type of paper.

How quickly does the ink dry on this paper?

This paper features instant dry technology, meaning the ink dries almost immediately upon printing, significantly reducing the risk of smudging.

What is the difference between this glossy paper and matte paper?

Glossy paper offers a shiny, reflective surface that enhances color vibrancy and contrast, while matte paper has a non-reflective, smooth finish ideal for reducing glare.

How many prints can I expect from one pack?

Each pack contains 20 sheets of A4 paper.

Can I achieve borderless printing with this paper?

Borderless printing capability depends on your specific printer model and its settings, not solely on the paper type. Check your printer's documentation.

What is the optimal DPI setting for this paper?

The paper supports printing at up to 5760dpi. For best results, select the highest quality print setting available on your inkjet printer.

Troubleshooting

Prints are smudged or smeared

Ensure the paper type is correctly selected in your printer settings. While instant-dry, some inks may require a short drying period. Avoid touching the printed surface immediately.

Colors appear dull or inaccurate

Verify that the correct paper type ('Glossy Photo Paper' or similar) is selected in your printer driver settings. Also, check your printer's ink levels and calibrate your monitor for accurate color representation.

Paper jams in the printer

Ensure the paper stack is fanned properly before loading and not overloaded. Check that the paper guides are set correctly. Try printing one sheet at a time to diagnose.

Print edges are not sharp

Confirm that the printer is set to a high-resolution print mode (e.g., 5760dpi if supported). Ensure the paper is loaded correctly and not bending excessively within the printer.
