B&W Only Papers
DSI Digital Silver Prints® are real silver gelatin (silver halide), black & white prints on a fiber base paper. DSI Digital Silver Prints® are made from the fusion of modern digital technology and traditional exposure/chemical printing. We use a Lightjet 430 photographic laser printer to expose light sensitive Ilford silver gelatin paper, then process the exposed paper in liquid photo chemistry. DSI Digital Silver Prints® have a proven archival superiority and a completely neutral image tone, without a color cast. This is simply the best fine art black & white print available directly from a digital file.
Inkjet/Giclée Papers
Hahnemühle Photo Rag® Baryta Semi-Gloss – This popular fine art paper combines the virtues of archival cotton rag with a fine Baryta surface like traditional darkroom photo papers. This paper has a neutral tone that reproduces images with rich color and sharpness. Our most requested fine art paper.
Hahnemühle PhotoRag® Metallic – A fine art 100% cotton rag paper with a “silvery-shimmering” surface created by a metallic flake. This unique paper is ideal for reproducing saturated graphic images. It is a heavyweight paper with a low gloss surface.
Hahnemühle Agave – 70% Sustainable agave fiber and 30% cotton make this matte paper the eco-friendly choice. With a slightly warmer base and subtle matte surface this fine art paper is a beautiful choice for portraiture or any subject that needs more subtle contrast and saturation.
Ilford Photo Pearl – Sharpness, clarity, and excellent tonal range characterize this heavyweight resin coated photo paper. At 310gsm, neutral white base, and resilient luster surface, this is a photo paper that will stand up to handling. A great choice for print swaps, portfolios, or display in locations with less than ideal conditions.
