Fine Art Paper for Archival Prints

Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Metallic is a natural white cotton paper designed for photographic and fine art reproduction. The 340 gsm weight and .47mm thickness provide a substantial feel suited to limited edition prints and exhibition display. Acid and lignin-free construction meets archival standards for age resistance.

Upgrade from Standard Photo Papers

This paper replaces conventional glossy or matte inkjet sheets when a metallic shimmer and deeper black density are required. The jump is worth it for images containing metallic elements, ice, glass or high-contrast black and white tones that benefit from the unique surface finish. Standard papers cannot reproduce the same silvery highlight effect.

Limits of Inkjet Coating Technology

The high-gloss premium coating is formulated specifically for inkjet printers and will not perform correctly with laser or offset processes. Natural white tone and 88% whiteness mean the base colour influences final output compared to brighter white substrates. Opacity of 99% minimises show-through but does not eliminate it entirely on double-sided prints.

Questions about this item

Will the 0.47 mm thickness feed through a standard photo printer rear tray?

At 0.47 mm the sheet is heavier than typical photo paper; check your printer’s maximum media thickness before loading it in a rear or straight-through path.

Which side of the natural white cotton sheet receives the inkjet coating?

The coating is on the silvery-shimmering face; load the paper so that side faces the print head — usually the side that curves upward in the pack.

How should I store unused sheets to keep the 99 % opacity and archival rating intact?

Keep sheets flat in the original box, away from humidity and light; the acid- and lignin-free cotton base resists yellowing when stored cool and dry.
