Professional Pearl Finish Media

This pack supplies 30 sheets of Ilford Smooth Pearl paper sized at 8.5 x 11 inches for inkjet photo printing. The surface delivers a professional pearl finish with an extensive colour gamut and an instant-dry coating. Sheets are compatible with both pigment and dye-based inkjet printers. The heavyweight feel mimics a traditional photographic print.

Upgrade from Standard Glossy or Matte Stock

Photographers who find glossy prints too reflective or matte papers lacking depth gain a middle-ground pearl texture. The instant-dry surface removes waiting time between printing and handling. Archival performance rated at 80+ years protects images from fading far longer than typical office paper. The jump is worth it when print longevity and surface quality matter.

Sustained Output on Pigment and Dye Systems

The coating accepts heavy ink loads from either pigment or dye printers without cockling or pooling during long print runs. Instant-dry performance remains consistent across the full 30-sheet pack so batch workflows do not stall. Colour gamut and tonal consistency hold steady from the first sheet to the last. Heavyweight construction resists curl even after extended printer residence.
