Välj rätt papper: En guide för bläckstråleutskrift av Happy Great

For most serious photographers, creating an image ends with the final print.


Photography has long been an art where the final product ends up hanging


in a gallery or at home . Photographers spend time researching what camera


and lenses to purchase. Exposure, shutter speed, depth of field, and lighting

are carefully chosen, then each image is post-processed to achieve a certain

look. Selecting the paper that the image will be printed is equally important

. With the ever-growing number of papers and surfaces available, selecting


one or two can become a confusing and overwhelming task. For the


dedicated photographer, the rewards of producing the perfect print are well


worth the journey. I have put together this guide to help your selection


process.

There is no one “perfect” inkjet paper for that special image. Disappointed

after all that buildup? It really comes down to how you want your printed

image to look, then narrowing down your choice, and trying a couple to


see which give the best impression. So where do you start your search?

Before you go out and buy a truckload of different papers to try, here are


two suggestions. To actually see and feel a variety of papers, head on down


to your local camera store. In the paper section there will be one or two

dog-eared booklets containing printed example images on a variety of


papers. That is the best way to see, touch and evaluate what you are buying

beforehand. Why each producer doesn’t make these booklets easier to


come by is beyond me. It is in fact the best selling tool but manufacturers


are very stingy with these sample books. They apparently are worth their


weight in gold.

Your second option is to buy a “Sampler Pack”. What a concept. With one


single purchase you can experiment with half a dozen or so papers to see


what you like. Every paper maker makes these available, often grouped by

application, say Black and White papers, or Fine Art Rag papers.

Surface and Texture. Papers come in a variety of surfaces, from a shiny


gloss to a completely unreflective matte and everything in between. Since


there are no defined standards for gloss, semi-gloss and matte don’t be

surprised if you see other descriptions that describe sheen and texture.

Descriptions like Hi-Gloss, luster, pearl, satin, silk or velvet are relatively


unhelpful if you can't see the final result. It’s best to refer to an example


print for guidance. Here are some broad descriptions.

Gloss is often a good choice for an image that has deep blacks and vibrant


colors. Gloss paper gives the sharpest detail, a number which describes how


deep the blacks are, and a high gamut, which describes the color range and


brilliance. Together, these elements impart the WOW! to the right image. So

why not use Gloss for all your images? Depending on your lighting setup,


a glossy surface can cause some unwanted reflections that might interfere


with seeing the print’s detail. Here your framing and display setup may be

critical. If for example your print will be going into a frame behind glass,


be aware of reflections bouncing between the paper and the two glass


surfaces.

RC papers are coated with a thin layer of polyester to insulate the fiber base

from the ink receptive layer. The term RC (Resin Coated) is a holdover

from traditional silver paper manufacture, and prevents the ink droplets


from penetrating and wicking into the fiber (see the diagram below) . Printer

development engineers have taken great pains to continuously reduce ink


droplet size to a few picoliters. One picoliter is one billionth of a milliliter.


RC papers help to keep those small drops from spreading and improve the


overall print sharpness. The polyester coating also gives the paper more

rigidity.

Thickness and Density. Larger prints require a more substantial paper, and


that is evaluated two different ways. Paper density or GSM, is measured in

grams per square meter and is usually published in the paper specs. Thicker


papers have a GSM in the range of 250 to315. Less than that, and large


prints become floppy and harder to work with. GSM has become the


evaluation standard, and it is uncommon to see thickness or caliper


measurements in the specs for inkjet paper.

Paper Color and Whiteness is often another consideration for paper


selection. Just as you would adjust color temperature when taking a photo

with your camera, paper color can affect the final print.

Whiteness is a measure of how close the paper comes to being “pure white”

and while I don’t know exactly what the gold standard for “pure white” is,

papers can be compared in relative terms.

And speaking of stability or Longevity, inkjet papers now are at least as


stable as their silver chemistry predecessors. Standard testing methods


established by Wilhelm Imaging Research predict that your inkjet prints


will remain unchanged for many decades to come.
