Re: [Digital BW] Orwell double sided?

2001-08-28 by sdmey4@aol.com

I came accross this myself many times over the weekend. Royal plush is 
definatley coated on both sides, whereas Orwell frankfurt, Classic Veluor is 
NOT.
With the plush paper one side is usually a little nicer printing than the 
other.
This adds a new wrinkle to the Clone theroy of all the versions of this paper.

 confused about which side to print on I use the stick-to-the-lip test, to
 feel the coating. I had trouble to tell with this paper, which is unusual.
 
 Long story short, I printed on both sides, and low and behold, I can't tell
 the two sides apart. They're both good!
 
 Is this a fluke, or a best kept secret? Orwell is double sided? >>
