Aurora Art White 250® Details & Information

Description

Made in the USA using 100% cotton, Aurora Art White 250 brings elegance and nuance to your photography and art prints. This acid-free paper features a pleasing white tone and semi-smooth surface. Plus, Aurora Art White 250 contains minimal optical brighteners. This is a benefit because the paper will remain its original shade over a long period of time. As an added bonus, you can print on both sides of Aurora. Neither too thick nor too thin, Aurora's 250gsm weight strikes the right balance between professional feel and ability to feed consistently into your printer.

Top quality art printing paper

I recently printed twenty scanned black and white drawings on Aurora 250 paper. The paper is beautiful and has a soft finish but the prints are sharp and clear. My printer is a Canon iP8720 and the 250 fed through the printer with no problem. I did not have to adjust for the thickness, but I fed the paper through one sheet at a time for extra care. \n\nDue to the paper finish, I think the ink is "in" the paper, not just "on" the surface. And no bleeding or smearing detected.

Beautiful!

Adrianne Kimbell, Aug 13, 2026

This paper is perfect for my art prints, which I sell at markets and local retail stores. I love the quality of texture and the weight of the paper. It's all perfect!
(I'm printing with a Canon Pixma Pro-200S. I created the art digitally in Procreate.)

Aurora Art White

Daniel Tubbs, Aug 11, 2026

Aurora Art is my go to paper for printing my black and white images. I have been doing more monochromatic photography recently and this paper works beautifully in my Canon inkjet printer. The paper has the look and feel of old photographic paper. I love the texture and bright white look.

Aurora Art White 250 and Premium Matte 230

Bruce Hurley, Jul 28, 2026

For several years I've been printing on Aurora Art White 250 and have been very happy with the product. I recently tried Premium Matte 230 and am very happy with it too. I make digital prints that start off as ink on paper and finished in Photoshop. Thanks for providing both of these quality papers.
