We study the effect of microroughness on the simulated specular reflection (i.e., gloss). We use the discrete-dipole approximation and compare the results to the Bennet–Porteus approximation. This study is originally applied to print toners for paper industry, but the results are general and apply to all other surfaces with small-scale roughness.
