Re: [Digital BW] Re: Recommendation for an A4 B&W-only printer

I'd recommend you get a glossy carbon inkset and try some of the baryta papers. Many think they are the closest to the silver print papers. If you generally mount photos under glass or acrylic, I prefer a smooth, "hot press" matte paper.

Hi Paul,

thanks for your reply.
I'll go for the 1500: it looks vastly better and your work on the 1400/1430 is impressive.

I haven't chosen the paper yet. In the inkjet world, which papers are roughly equivalent to Ilford RC Pearl? and FB Glossy?

Thanks,
Federico
