Photo Paper FAQs
Glossy or satin photo paper — which should I choose?
Glossy gives the deepest blacks and brightest colours but shows fingerprints. Satin (lustre) resists fingerprints and glare while keeping most of the colour, so it suits portraits and prints that will be handled.
Can I use inkjet photo paper in a laser printer?
No. Inkjet photo paper has a coating designed to absorb liquid ink, and the heat of a laser printer can damage the coating and the printer. Use coated laser paper or art paper for laser printing.
What gsm is photo paper?
Photo paper is usually 180gsm to 260gsm. We stock 200gsm glossy and 260gsm satin; the heavier sheet feels more like a professional print.
Photo Paper in Kenya
Photo paper has a resin-coated (RC) base and a microporous receiving layer that absorbs inkjet dye instantly, producing sharp, water-resistant prints that dry to the touch immediately.
Finishes
Glossy gives the deepest blacks and the widest colour gamut but shows fingerprints. Satin (lustre) resists fingerprints and glare while keeping most of the gloss colour depth — the usual choice for portraits and prints that will be handled. Matte suits fine-art reproduction and prints displayed under strong light.
