Hi Prashant
Just had another look on the Epson site and they do advertise a Luster paper but it only seems to be available in very large sheet size for some odd reason.
If you wish a pearl finish try Ilford. They have a soft pearl finish which is very close to Epsons luster finish. It,Ilford,is less expensive that the Epson luster and I like the finish a bit more -not as textured.
Actually, Epson does make a premium lustre as well as a semi gloss. I have both in sizes from 8 1/2 X 11 up to 13 X 19. They also create paper profiles in both for most of their printers. I have the profiles for a Stylus Photo 2200. Prashan, I don't know if they are available in Europe or not but most photo stores that carry Epson papers around here have them.

You're talking about Epson Ultra Premium Glossy paper, only available in 4x6 and 8.5x11 so far. You can order from B&H: http://tinyurl.com/menv3. It's a nice paper.

Check out www.atlex.com they sell Epson products and the price is pretty good.

8 repliesI searched local shops probably the paper is sold with a different name.
I don't know of an Epson 'Lustre' paper. They do make a semi-gloss finish which might be the same thing.
Here is a link to the official UK Epson supplies page ;

It seems I have to ask somebody to buy it for me and post it, not cheap.
Jim
can you tell me the exact name? I did not find any with this name for inkjet.
