Epson Hot Press Natural Reviews

Beautiful paper for photos + graphics

By Charmaine
Rated 5 out of 5

I ordered Epson Hot Press Natural Paper to print my daughter's graduation announcements. The paper performed beautifully. I was nervous to order this paper after reading reviews that complained about the color, but I'm glad I went with my instincts. The paper is a lovely warm white and the photos printed on it look fantastic! The paper is technically one-sided but I printed on both sides with no problems. I used an Epson SureColor P900 Printer, with the paper set to UltraSmooth Fine Art Paper.

Solid paper for high-quality prints

Really like the thickness of the paper and print quality. Epson lists a number of printers that use ink compatible with the paper - check these to see if your printer is listed. Mine wasn't (Epson Ecotank) but the quality still looks really good and I'm happy with it.

How close is this to Moab Entrada Natural? It seems like they would be quite close, both being natural and I assume with no OBAs
Asked by: Arthur
The Epson Hot Press Natural Smooth Matte has a very similar surface and thickness as the Moab Entrada Rag Natural 190. Both papers are OBA free.

question

can you use this paper 8.5x11 with the Epson XP-960 and do you load it with printable side up in the large cassette tray?
Asked by: Anonymous
I seriously doubt that you can feed this paper through a cassette. I have an Epson P800, into which this paper must be feed by hand using the front fine art loader. It will not run through the top loading feeder on the P800. This paper is not listed in the Manual for this machine. You may able to tell if the machine can handle it by seeing if you can select it in the Printer Dialog Box under Printer Settings-->Media Type-->Fine Art Paper-->Hot Press Natural. If there is no setting for this paper, then you are probably out of luck. Last resort, call Epson. I'd be sure your machine can handle it, before chewing up this expensive product and ruining your machine.

question

Does anyone have experience hand-tinting photos with the paper and materials were used?
Asked by: Anonymous
The (300lb) paper takes acrylic, water color and gouache well. In the dark blacks the ink tends to lift a little but the other inks do not intermix or lift. I am printing with and Epson Surecolor P8OO using Epson's ultrachrome HD inks (recommended).
