Epson unveils DS Transfer Photo Paper for photo panels

Epson has announced a new solution designed for creating dye-sublimation photo panels and other rigid substrates. New Epson DS Transfer Photo Paper, a lightweight dye-sublimation transfer paper – combined with Epson SureColor F-Series dye-sublimation printers, inks and Wasatch RIP support – aims to create a complete solution for producing rigid photos with advanced print quality and minimal grain.

The new DS Transfer Photo Paper boasts excellent colour gamut and black density, with reduced grain and mottling for smoother flesh tones and cleaner, lighter colours. Epson says the paper offers high ink transferability with slight transparency, which helps register the printed paper to the rigid substrate. Best used with the SureColor F6200, Wasatch SoftRIP version 7.6 offers full support for the DS Transfer Photo Paper for colour management, print cost estimation and colour profiles.

The new DS Transfer Photo Paper is available now through Epson authorized Professional Imaging Resellers in three roll sizes for the following MSRPs: 17” x 300’; 24” x 300’; and 44” x 300’.
