The proof is in the print. Check out the difference using quality paper makes.

Here's a test where you can see two prints being made. One on premium quality inkjet paper and the other on bargain brand paper. It should be noted that the bargain brand paper used was a supposed high quality bargain brand.

Enjoy!!!

Slow moving video, but I could see the difference at the end. Tough to see, but I did notice the difference with the blacks. :thumbsup:

Thank you for the feedback :). I'm glad the difference comes through somewhat. It is such a challenge to show differences in video but it's pretty drastic when you see the prints next to each other.

The non Finestra print not only has blocky blacks but it is much duller than ours as well. Too many people think paper is paper and unfortunately that's just not the case but always a challenge to show unless you see the prints yourself.

I could speed things up but there's usually someone who thinks there is some sort of thing being done to make one look better than another so showing the full print process of two consecutive prints was the only way I could prove the test is a fair one :).

Thank you for checking it out and for the feedback :)

I had to watch the end a couple times to see the difference. Perhaps easier to see on larger screen. What printer were they using there?

Are you looking for where to buy? If so finestraart.com, just look at the left column and choose the paper type you are looking for. This video was on premium glossy, there's another posted yesterday of Finestra metallic papers.

Cheers,
Bryan
