Archival inkjet prints made from negatives, slides or files and output to either Epson Exhibition Fiber glossy, Ilford Galerie Gold Fibre Silk, Crane Museo Silver Rag or Harmon Glassy FB Al warm or neutral paper. We recommend the Silver Rag and Harmon warmtone for prints to be sepia toned. The Epson Exhibition Fiber and Ilford Galerie Gold are colder toned and work best for a selenium type tone. All four work well with color.

DAS Geo Canvas
GEO Canvas is an actual canvas designed for inkjet printing. It can be stretched on a frame like any canvas. It works well with any image but is especially good for oil originals. It has a glossy surface.
Other papers include Epson Premium Glossy and Epson Premium Lustre. These papers are less expensive but have the full range of colors available in more expensive papers. Life expectancy is shorter than any of the premium papers, but is still better than traditional color photographs.
