Steve, Assuming you have Eboni in the K position slot, it doesn't matter which media type you select for printing BO to semi-gloss or other RC papers because the ink is just sitting on top of the surface. I used the Enhanced matte setting, but it really doesn't matter which you choose. You must of course spray with PrintShield later.
