Ilford Galerie Smooth Pearl Paper is a premium polymer RC paper designed to provide images with excellent color stability and an elegant professional finish, from today's range of photo-dedicated desktop inkjet printers. Features include:

• Smooth pearl surface
• Instant dry (microceramic)
• Superb photographic image quality and consistency *
• Heavyweight look and feel of a real photograph
• Compatible with Dye & Pigmented ink printers

*As with all microceramic (instant dry) coated media, ILFORD GALERIE Smooth Pearl can be susceptible to 'gas fading' due to air bourne pollutants. Covering the image with glass for example, will ensure that a print from a dye based printer will last for up to 10 years depending on the manufacturer's ink. Initial accelerated testing indicates that a GALERIE Smooth Paper product will last in excess of 30 years using a pigment ink desktop printer.
Please check printer manufacturer for specific performance details.

The life expectancy of all inkjet media is influenced by humidity, light and the ink being used. At higher levels or humidity, one should expect a shorter life expectancy than at low light level or humidity. Some inkjet printer inks also offer poor stability when compared with others. When storing and handling prints at the extremes of the environmental range (<10% r.h. and >70%) performance and permanence may be reduced.
