Digital BW, The Print

I will be receiving epson's HP natural next week, I don't think I want the texture of cold press, which another reason for something besides william turner. I may try the sample pack which  contains bamboo and turner.  thanks  Dan

It was not as warm as I would expect William Turner to be, but the overall harmony between paper and inks was just beautiful. Perhaps Epson COLD Press Natural may do the trick if you want textured paper. The black density almost matches that of William Turner.

I'd suggest Bamboo, and am continually impressed with the performance of the paper and the appeal of the prints. But being from the same manufacturer as William Turner, you may not find it much more economical. Interestingly, some of the newest "warm" papers like the Epson naturals actually cool off the inks many of us use for B&W. So even if you have a warmish paper base, your image time may go cooler.
