Sneak Peek at New Red River Paper Inkjet Media

Changes are coming to the Red River lineup. We will add two new and exciting photobase papers before the end of 2006.

DENALI GLOSS AND SEMIGLOSS

Denali will be the high quality "entry level" into our PhotoFeel resin coated paper offering. Denali Gloss features a highly polished shiny look and 10mil thickness. Denali SemiGloss is also a photo weight paper with a beautiful buffed gloss surface - perfect for detailed photos that demand less light reflection. Look for Denali to be below 30 cents per sheet for 8.5x11 - another great cost saving paper from Red River.

POLAR ARCTIC GLOSS AND SATIN

The current Polar Gloss and Satin feature a unique, warm white surface tone great for portraits. Polar Arctic papers will offer the same truly top end quality AND brilliant blue-white tonality (even more blue-white than the current Red River UltraPro papers). Along with more Polar photo paper choices, expect the price level to drop from 55 cents/sheet to 40 cents/sheet for 8.5x11.

Keep checking this site and the main Red River home page for more on Denali and Polar photo inkjet papers.

Epson 3800 Announcement

UPDATE: Red River Paper selection of inkjet media for the Epson 3800 is here


The next big thing from Epson is this sleek, "compact" professional level inkjet printer. Using 9 individual UltraChrome K3™ ink tanks, the 3800 will offer speed, outstanding print quality, and long print life.

Some highlights:

  • Auto-sharing black ink technology - this means both matte and photo black are on-board at the same time. No more changing tanks and wasting all that time and ink!
  • Flexible media handling - can accomodate 4x6 up to 17x22 sheets including borderless printing up to 16x20
  • Long lasting UltraChrome™ K3 inks

Red River has a great deal of experience with the UltraChrome K3 system. We offer 15 unique inkjet papers that will compliment the outstanding print quality of the 3800. Our papers are offered in many sizes are usually substantially less than competitive quality papers.

We plan on offering a detailed look at the printer that focuses on the many great projects you can tackle with our inkjet media on hand.
