RE: [Digital BW] Fragile Hahnemule prints

2004-03-20 by Ellie Kennard

Thanks Paul,

I have been using the HPR for about 6 months and had not noticed any
problems with it. I was not using UC inks, of course, as we have just got
the 7600's. I will keep my eye out for any problems with it.

Is it only the Photo Rag that is supposed to be having problems? We have
been using the Colorspan Fineart Permacolor Paper for over two years
(apparently the same as the H. German Etching Board) and have had no
problems whatsoever with it discolouring etc. Different paper, being
cellulose, not Rag, of course.

Thanks,

Ellie
