Re: [Digital BW] Eclispe Satine was Re: MIS VM Initial Impressions and Questions

Martin, I just printed a Color print on a 11x17 sheet of Eclipse this morning. It is gorgeous. It is Brilliant! I used the MIS archival
pigment inks and Beta Black from Generations. It couldn't be nicer.  I won't be using it for Piezo inks, or with Epson inks.

Jerry

This paper will replace torchon as soon as I've used up my supply of torchon. The Torchon profile works perfectly on the Eclipse paper!
Today is a good day!
