  A little follow up.
  After reading Claytons' response I'd have to agree
  about the Merlin smooth paper.  Very long tonal scale
  that at first glance reminded me of my first Paladium
  prints in tonal range and print color. But then I was
  thinking, and this goes for all the prints.....

    I have no idea if a profile or a HM profile or PR
  profile make any difference in BO printing.  I did all
  my prints in "watercolor paper" setting as suggested
  by HM.  I had found trying some other things that the
  watercolor setting prints with less contrast than
  printing any paper as EEM.  So all of my HM tests
  should be contrastier or at least deeper blacks by
  using the EEM setting instead of watercolor.

  The HM papers don't seem to use optical brighteners
  that I think, not sure fade away and leave the print
  warmer and/or darker.  Well less white any way.

  Are the 2 PR papers, 300gm and the lighter one (can't
  remember the weight) the same?   Somewhere and maybe
  it was a site that listed all the PR papers specs that
  the lighter PR has a brightener that isn't mentioned
  in the 300gm specs.  Anyone know if this is right?

  My prints on the light PR looked very much like EEM as
  far as brightness goes but the prints on the 300gm
  paper seem definently less white than EEM.

  I'm soon to get a print order from a friends wedding I
  shot in 11/03.  I'm doing 2 more friends weddings this
  summer.

  Betweem PR and HM papers I just want a nice bright
  white paper, or I should say a paper with a nice clean
  white that stays that way.
