 Epson Stylus Pro 3800
Epson Stylus Pro 7600 / 9600
UltraChrome Ink Tests on Various Print Media
- Using both Photo Black and Matte Black Inks -


Each Test Print was printed using our downloadable test pattern (2.6MB Zip compressed TIFF). Each print was printed using Epson's own media profile that was recommended for that paper and black ink combination. The profiles were applied in photoshop and color controls in the Epson driver were turned off. The working space in Photoshop we use is the Adobe1998 space. Exceptions: The "Watercolor paper Radiant White" media profiles (PK="Photo Black" or MK="Matte Black") were used for the Hahnemuhle Photo Rag and the "Enhanced Matte" profiles used for the Somerset Photo Enhanced Velvet tests. "Monochrome" prints were made using all seven ink colors, but printed from a grayscale version of our test pattern. All papers but the enhanced matte needed an adjustment layer added to get a more neutral image (click this link to download the file). Each print has an input resolution to the printer of 360 ppi. All tests were printed at 1440 x 720 dpi. Each Test Print measures about 3.5" x 5".


Currently, these are the only papers we have used to print multiple test samples. More will probably be added in the future. If you would like a larger test print or a test print on a paper not listed here, visit our Custom Test Prints page.

*Epson Glossy Paper Photo Weight is an incredible paper that has been overlooked by most. We highly recommend this paper. It produces rich, saturated colors and a high D-Max. The "gloss" is similar to an air-dried, B/W (silver-gelatin) glossy, fiber-base, photographic paper. This surface greatly reduces the gloss-differential common to pigment inks on glossy papers (where the paper becomes duller where more ink is laid down).
