What you should know

KODAK Production Matte Paper / 170g is a matte photo paper at 7 mil and 170 gsm on a smooth, bright white base, which Kodak states gives users the ability to print high-quality photos at low cost. This is the pallet-quantity listing at a fixed 42-inch width — the format for a shop that runs matte production paper as a standing line rather than ordering it against individual jobs.

What KODAK Production Matte Paper / 170g (Pallet only) is used for

Point-of-purchase displays
Posters
Architectural drawings
Full-colour photos
Colour-accurate renderings

POP displays, posters and architectural drawings are Kodak’s stated ideal applications, and they are also the kinds of work that come in volume — which is the argument for buying this way. A campaign of a hundred posters or a set of renderings for a full submission is exactly the load a pallet is priced against.

Ink compatibility

Aqueous dye and aqueous pigment inks are each rated BEST. Latex, solvent, eco-solvent and UV-curable inks are not rated for this paper, so this is strictly an aqueous inkjet stock — worth confirming before a pallet commitment, since a pallet is not a quantity you want to discover is wrong for your press.

Working with it

Whiteness measures 150 CIE, the brightest sheet in Kodak’s photographic paper range as we hold it. Kodak’s protection guidance covers several routes: mounting under glass, laminating, clear coating or photographic sleeves all help image durability and stability. Where a laminate is used, pressure-sensitive types give the best bond and hand application is not recommended. Supplied in 42-inch rolls on 2-inch cores; the single-roll listing of the same paper runs 36 to 60 inches if you need another width.

Full technical detail

Printers this media fits

Checked against every wide-format printer we track: 98 can run it — HP 48 · Epson 33 · Canon 17. Compatibility is resolved from the printer’s published media handling (roll width, core size and the roll diameter the spindle holds), not from a marketing list.

The list starts from the maker’s own ink ratings for this media — rated BEST for Dye, Pigment ink. A printer only appears here if its ink chemistry is one of those.
