Media Type for Matt Canvas

(1/2) > >>

Mike Sellers:
I am trying out a matte canvas on my HP Z3100 for the first time and would like some suggestions on what media type to choose.
Mike

Mike Sellers:
To be more specific it is Simply Elegant Matte Canvas and the choices in the printer are
1. HP Prof Matte Canvas
2. HP Artist Matte Canvas
3. Canvas

I.T. Supplies:
Mike,

I would recommend either the Prof Matte Canvas or Canvas media type.  The Artist Matte is a little lighter than the Simply Elegant Matte canvas; so the other 2 options would work best.

Hope this helps.

Which matte canvas are you using?

If you've never seen it, the attached is pretty darn handy. Pages 7+ gives you ink limits, black ink type, etc of various HP media types. Pretty helpful when starting the process to decide for new 3rd party media.

You can see from the tables that all three of these canvas media types have identical ink limits, rendering and printing resolutions, # of passes, and carriage travel settings. In other words, it shouldn't much matter which of those you select, according to this HP doc.

Good luck.

Mike Sellers:
Hey thanks Justin and everyone else-great info
