Digital BW, The Print

Hi Julian,

Yup, just call me Picky.  I think I've spent way too much money over the
last year trying so many different kind of papers. I've kind of boiled
it down to 3 or 4, and I'm quite pleased with them. I'm not going to be
testing many more, I'll just be printing.  

If someone on the list comes out with a great recommendation, I suppose
I'll try it, 'cause I'm always curious, and hoping for even better
quality. But truly, the quality is so good now, If I don't find anything
better, I'll still be happy.

Jerry.
