Arista EDU Ultra VC RC Paper 16x20" Pearl

This photographic paper measures 16 by 20 inches and is supplied in a pack of 25 sheets. It features a Pearl finish on a medium-weight, polyethylene-coated base. The paper is designed for black-and-white enlarging with variable contrast control. Condition is new.

For darkroom printers needing adjustable contrast

Photographers who want contrast selection from grade 0 through grade 5 using yellow and magenta filters will suit this paper. It works with Ilford Multigrade or Kodak Polymax filters and tungsten light sources. Buyers who want a glossy or semi-matte surface should look at something else. Those needing colour printing paper cannot use this product.

Variable contrast range grade 0 to grade 5

The single specification that decides fit is the adjustable contrast range from grade 0 through grade 5. Standard Ilford Multigrade or Kodak Polymax filters provide this control across the full scale. Grade 3.5 is referenced for Ilford filter exposure calibration. Without a variable-contrast enlarger or filter set, the paper cannot deliver its intended range.

Questions about this item

What contrast range does the variable-contrast paper cover when I use Ilford Multigrade filters?

The paper delivers grades 0 through 5; with Ilford Multigrade filters you can dial in grades 00 to 3.5 directly, while grades 4 and 5 need the magenta or yellow filter settings on a colour enlarger head.

Which filter system does the paper rely on for contrast control?

Standard Ilford Multigrade or Kodak Polymax/Polycontrast filters are used, and a colour enlarger head can substitute by adjusting its magenta or yellow filtration.

Will the 16 by 20 inch sheets fit my existing processing trays and drying racks?

Each sheet measures 16 by 20 inches, so it fits any tray or rack designed for that standard size; the pack contains 25 sheets.
