Jim -

   I brushed it gently. I refuse to use the canned "air" due to environmental
concerns.

   It looked OK when it can out of the printer, but within 5 minutes of handling
there were white specs all over the dark areas of the print. I presume this was
from coating flaking off.

   This could be because the Epson 1270 curls the paper in the process of
printing it, but it seems to be less curl than many other printers. 

   In any case, the one sample I tried was unacceptable.

Hi Chuck

On The Hahnemuhle Photo Rag.. Flaked? Did you wipe it or use a can of air to
blow it? I haven't heard of Photo Rag flaking ..Or maybe I missed Something..
I know about William Turner Flaking in the past ...
Cheers
