Printer Compatibility

At 120gsm, this pearlescent paper is compatible with a wide range of home inkjet and laser printers. Use your printer's manual or rear feed tray for the straightest paper path. In your printer settings, select Glossy Paper or Photo Paper (Glossy) as the media type. Set print quality to Best or High Quality.

As a deeper coloured paper, Royal Red will absorb more ink than lighter shades — printed colours may appear differently than on screen, and light or white text may require a higher ink density setting. A test print is recommended before committing to a full run. Allow ink to dry fully before handling.

Royal Red vs Emperor Red Pearlescent Paper

Royal Red and Emperor Red are both deep red pearlescent papers, but they come from different ranges. Royal Red is a vivid, saturated red — bright and bold, with a strong shimmer that suits high-impact designs. Emperor Red is GF Smith's Peregrina Majestic version — a deeper, richer red with a more refined, premium shimmer and the quality assurance of the GF Smith range. If you want a striking, affordable red shimmer paper, Royal Red delivers it. If you want the premium GF Smith finish, Emperor Red Pearlescent A4 Paper 120gsm is the choice.
