RE: [Digital BW] Epson Ultrasmooth Fine Art Paper

2003-03-01 by Tim Atherton

The same newsletter also had this:

"Arches Paper, a company with a 500 year tradition of making the finest
watercolor papers, will be introducing the new "Infinity" line of Inkjet
Papers. They will be available in both a smooth and textured surface in
230gsm and 350gsm sheets and rolls.

We have been printing on it now for a month and all we can say is WOW!! We
are so confident in this paper that we can comfortably call it the BEST fine
art inkjet paper on the market. It has an exceptional D-Max (best we've ever
seen), beautiful surface, wide color gamut and is extremely versatile."

I've used arches hot [pressed for other stuff (not inkjet - apart from for
printing scans of images transfers originally made on it) and rather like
their papers - so this could be interesting.

But I must say, the best prints I've been getting recently are on the new
Epson 2200 at work, using the greyscale balancer, on ultra glossy... side by
side, the EHM prints from my MIS FS neutral are starting to look rather blah
:-(
