Canson/ Arches Platine Fiber Rag vs ?

by EveNSteve

I’m almost finished testing this material but I could not help but post a bit of a preview! The inner projection is an icc. made for an Epson 7880/ 9880 on a premium quality photo white gloss digital art paper…the outer wire frame projection is the new Canson/ Arches Platine Fiber Rag icc. made on our d’Vinci Printer. The difference is HUGE. On new machines from Epson, Canon and HP this paper will rock!

Oh yeah…did I forget to mention that the surface is beautiful as well?! Stay tuned!
