- Paper thickness and Opacity: thicker paper is preferred for printing photos off of a Inkjet Printer. For mounting the higher opacity papers are better.
- Color Brilliance: The brighter or whiter a photo the better the image is a false claim, but common belief. Purchase paper with lower values if you want your photos to last.
- Paper Finish: Choose between matte and glossy. Should be selected based on what look you are going for.
ISO BRIGHTNESS SCALE: Basically this scale conveys that the lower the ISO the darker the image, less noise, higher quality. The higher the ISO the brighter the image, more noise, lower quality. It is typically good to shoot for the middle when setting your ISO so that you get the best of both worlds. However when you are shooting in dark lighting, a much higher ISO is going to be needed and recommended for the picture to even show up. On the other hand if you are shooting with a lot of light then a lower ISO would be good so that you don't have so much noise and the quality is higher. It all depends on what you are going for or what you need. You have to adapt to the environment you are in when setting ISO.
TAPPI SCALE: Simply put the TAPPI scale is a scale that charts the whiteness of the paper you are using.This is scale is made by using the lighting of UV, etc. This allows for a photographer to see which paper would be best to use for their images and which will come out most clearly. It shows the UV filter, white backing and black backing. This allows the artist to understand how the photo will turn out.
