Replicating the appearance and feel of a traditional F-surface darkroom paper, Epson Exhibition Fiber Paper aims to provide users with a beautiful soft gloss finish for their digital prints. A fiber base offers a professional feel with a weight of 325 gsm and thickness of 13 mil, making it an excellent choice for galleries and exhibitions. Also, by utilizing some optical brightening agents the paper is able to reach a whiteness of 147% and a brightness of 111%. This makes it possible to create prints with deep blacks and subtle tonal gradations, suitable for advanced black-and-white printing as well as long-lasting color prints. Additionally, this paper is instant drying.
This paper is available here as a 25-pack of 8.5 x 11″ sheets.

I love this paper; the resulting images are beautiful. There has been a known issue for some time with this particular paper though. I’ve been working with this paper for years. For each box I order, there are at least 5 or 6 that have black spots on them. They often occur in the area where one would have a border, so it makes the paper unusable. Epson is aware of this issue. After having the problem recur with every single box I’ve purchased, I started saving the unacceptable papers, calling Epson and arranging for an exchange.

This is a high quality paper, it renders the colors very nice, it looks more contrasty than Casnon Baryta paper. it is tick and sturdy and it has more texture than baryt papers. The only reason I am giving 4 stars is the lack of profile on Epson’s website and there are no good instruction on which media to select (gloss, luster, semi-gloss). Epson should’ve done beter job on this. Something that other reviewers noted: the coating of the paper peels off time to time and you have to re-print.

Perfect for those nicer museum quality prints

I user this for printing traditional B/W and infrared B/W images. The paper has a brightens that make B/W images look fantastic. For this purpose I love this paper. It is a bit more expensive then other Epson paper but it’s worth the price.

I’ve always enjoyed this paper in sheet format – great for color and B&W. However, I needed to print a 34 wide landscape photo with my Epson 3880. Although the 3880 does not have a paper roll feed mechanism, I was able to cut this roll and feed it through the sheet feeder. Works very well on the 3880 up to 34.7 width, without using RIP to go beyond that.

Of the 22 papers that I have tried with my Epson 3880 printer this is the one that is my primary choice for almost all of my images. Results are predictable and never disappointing.; they glow in the dark.

Love this paper for all my prints. It’s not glossy enough to be glossy and not matte enough to be matte.

Epson Exhibition is a lustrous surface paper with excellent reproduction quality and long lasting keeping properties. My only problem is Epson does not manufacture the paper in 11×17 size. The only solution is to purchase the 17×22 and cut each sheet in half. It is for this reason that I gave it 4 stars.

Great paper…amazing color range and DMax…would have given it four star except for the fact it’s a bit fragile…prone to damage if not handle exceptionally carefully…

A great weight, but looks pretty much like the high end luster paper. Very nice tones, but not as quite a luminous a surface as I’d like. I guess nothing really can replace traditional color prints…

Pretty good paper, still not as beautiful as the old darkroom prints but its must better than the luster.

This was my first time printing on 13×19 sized paper and I was blown away by the quality of Epson’s exhibition fiber. Although it wasn’t the original paper that I wanted to go with, I ended up settling on it because of its decent price. However, after printing on it and seeing the results it can produce, I’m glad that I did.

This paper is wonderful. I’ve been using Hahnemhle FineArt Pearl with my Epson 2880. I would always have problem with feeding the paper in, and the paper would sometimes jam. The ink often smeared on the paper. I tried multiple setup but could never get it right. I’ve also used the Epson premium glossy because I like the way the blacks come out and the durability of glossy vs. matte prints. The Matte prints were easily scratched or smudged. On sale, the exhibition fiber was less that the glossy, hence my chance to test it out. I hope that Epson keeps the price down, otherwise it would be prohibitive and I would have to crawl back to the premium glossy. The exhibition fiber paper works really well with the R2880. The blacks come out perfectly and the colors as expected. The feel is awesome, nicely weighted. The durability is great. You can handle it without getting finger prints or smudges. It is a little bright, haven’t really used paper this bright, but I like it and can get used to it.

This paper has the best blacks and paper white with the same texture as the wet darkroom silver emulsion papers. I also want to commend B&H for the triple boxing that they put on their delivery, which keeps the paper in top shape.

This inkjet paper is great!!! Vibrant colors and excellent ease of use. I use it for all my printing with my epson 3800 printer.

This paper is top notch for high-end ink prints. It is used by numerous professionals I’ve worked for, as well as myself. The only downfall is is fragility. It scratched very easily, especially after it has been printed on. Also, this paper is thick and may require more care in loading into the printer.
