Re: transparent "paper" for printing negatives?

2003-10-31 by Mark Hahn

Take a look at this site:

http://www.kcbx.net/~mhd/2photo/outneg/outneg0.htm

Judging from all this author's other work I would expect that these 
recommendations are about as good as you can get (people who have 
seen his prints rave about the quality).  He goes through the 
technical details at great length so I doubt that you even need to 
buy the book... except that it may be good reading... don't know.

PS  Epson Photo Quality Glossy Film is quite expensive.  I have read 
from other sources that some people have reasonable luck with the 
cheap matte HP photoquality inkjet paper.  When I hold Epson 
photoquality paper to a light it obviously is *not* the right 
choice.  I have been debating going down this road myself as I prefer 
the look of *real* glazed photos.
