Digital BW, The Print

It is "PiezoGloss" paper that only remains glossy with Canon Piezotone 
ink.  Epson piezotone ink will exhibit the buffing/powder coat that it 
does on all the other glossy papers. Which I guess indicates that there 
is something funky going on with the Canon version. I hope they have 
fully tested whatever that funkiness is for proper archival properties.
