re: Brilliant paper

2004-01-07 by William John Smith

The new Brilliant paper that Calumet is now pushing is inkjet not photo 
paper.
Calumet still sells Zone VI Brilliant photo paper.
Calumet has stopped selling the inkjet paper because of 
"...inconsistencies in initial packing..."
but claims the paper itself  is OK.  No word on when the paper will be 
available.
