Epson Smooth Fine Art paper

2002-11-23 by Paul Roark

I finally was able to try a some Epson Smooth Fine Art roll paper in my
3000.  The good news is that the roll version is only 225 g, so it feeds
fine.  The bad news is that with the 3000 and FS-N inks the paper is very
blotchy -- useless, in my view.

I saw a sample that had been printed on a 7600 and it was just marginally
better.

The best black I saw from the 3000 FS-N combination was 1.57 with the PQIJ
paper setting.  The settings that put out more ink posterized the print and
result in a lower density black.
