Hi Richard,
I am in Australia and have been told that HP premium plus paper has 
been discontinued here and replaced with Colourfast. I have been 
using it for several months now and it seems to be about the best 
paper to use with the HP7660. I have tried many others (Kodak Ultima 
& Ilford Gallerie are also excellent) but if you want a good acrhival 
lifespan the Colourfast paper is the way to go.

Cheers,
Paul.
