I am preparing the test of some sample packs of Canson and Hahnemühle papers on my Epson 3880.

For the Canson Papers the valid "Media Types" are presented clearly in a document by Canson: "ICC profiles & Printer color calibration settings".
So far I have not yet found the same information for all Hahnemühle papers.
Can anybody let me know where I can find this information.

Thanks!

Harry

Not exactly sure what you are looking for Harry.

I use a couple of the Harman by Hahnemuhle Baryta papers because of their excellent quality and in North America B&H frequently discounts them to half the price of the closest Red River product.

Is the attached PDF of any help?

When Googling Hahnemueller I get a multitude of hits from worldwide locations depending on search parameters.

Roy:
Thank you for the file of the "Harman ICC Profiles" for the Epson 3880, which shows In the third column the "Media Settings" for these Harman papers.
The Media Settings have to be used in the Print Setting of the Lightroom Print menu to obtain the correct print quality when using Harman Papers.
I am trying to find the same information for the 16 Hahnemühle papers I have selected.
On Google I find some of these Hahnemühle papers but not a review of all their papers.

Thank you for your help.
It is somewhat strange to see that Hahnemühle uses for all their MK papers the Epson Media type: 'Velvet Fine Art Paper" and for all their PK papers the Epson Media type: "Ultra Premium Photo Paper"
In the Print settings for Epson Pro 3880 the media type "Velvet Fine Art Paper" is listed, but not 'Ultra Premium Photo Paper"' (Ultra is missing)
But I now know what media type to use!
