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 13 x 19″ sheets.

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…

love this paper. Used it to print on with my 3880 Epson Pro.

This paper is gorgeous. I have printed color and B&W and both look fantastic. I love the heavier weight of this paper over Epson Premium Luster (although that is a great paper also). The “look” of the paper is not glossy, not matte, and not really luster-very similar to Ilford Gold Fibre Silk…but not quite. The images are beautiful. IMO, this paper is worth the price.

The slight sheen & weight make this paper feel & produce like standard darkroom paper.

Nothing but great results with this on my Epson 3800. Consistently beautiful color and black and white printing.

This is a thick paper with a solid feel and nice texture — much better than Lustre. Without a doubt it is Epson’s finest paper ever manufactured. I viewed several prints made with an Epson 9900 and this paper that were beyond description. They were that great! The sharp tones and brilliant colors are terrific. As for this paper being similar to that of papers used by wet darkroom owners, I highly disagree on this point. I had a darkroom for many years. Exhibition Fiber Paper is absolutely nothing at all like the papers I used in that environment. This is not a shortcoming. It is just an observation. Exhibition Fiber Paper is a marvelous product on its own basis.

A noticeable improvement over Epson Premium Luster paper for B&W prints.

This has become my go-to paper for most of my work. It has the feel that clients are looking for, while it displays colors in a rich, vibrant way. It’s been perfect for wedding prints, exhibiting my personal work, and is affordable enough for me to keep my prices competitive. There are a few times that Epson’s Luster has yielded a slightly better result, but that has been exceptionally rare. Honestly, I can’t rate this high enough; if not because I like it, because the clients who pay me LOVE it. Btw, it handles B&W as well as anything I’ve used yet on my 3880.

This is a superb paper for making fine prints. It has a semi-gloss texture much like darkroom paper. I could not afford to use it until Epson dumped the price…it used to be $! I use it in all sizes up to 24 wide.

Great surface and weight and perfect for my B+W images

Had a hard time getting the colors to come out right using Epson Exhibition Fiber profile on an Epson P800 printer. Finally got it looking good by using the Epson Luster profile. This is the reason for the 4 stars, the ICC profile being bad. Wasted too many prints. Love the look of the paper, just be sure to get all the white specks of the paper before printing, or you will have ugly white spots on your finished print.

very high quality. The larger size is useful for stiff posterboard-like uses. Excellent for any use; I use ultra premium luster for most of my photo printing.
