Occasionally for Paper Chase we take a comprehensive look at complete paper ranges from single suppliers. The first we did was back in 2005 when we looked at the entire PermaJet paperrange and although we have routinely looked at their products as new components have been launched, it was timely to look at the entire range once again.

For a test such as this the number of variables is vast and simplifications have to be made. The variables are the printer, the ink, the settingsand the profiles.

Each media was profiled at PermaJet using the X-Rite ISIS spectrophotometer, linked withX-Rite Profiler Pro 5.0.
