Digital BW, The Print

Hi Group,
     For about a month now I've been learning printing with MIS VM on my
1280 (which seems to clog and unclog just often enough to make me keep
it and not send it back yet).  Up until now I've been using Epson HWM
because it's cheap, and I'm learning.  I've found the highlights are
good, the midtones are fair, and the blacks are very poor.  Overall,
it's just OK.  Also, I still see some matamerism in the form of a very
slight bit of a greenish hue under direct sun and some fluorescent
lights.
     Can someone recommend a paper that would be a step up, but not a
waste of my money at my early leaning stage?  I'm looking for a deeper
black and to eliminate the slight greenish cast in sunlight.

Thanks,
Ed
