[Digital BW] Re: Best paper for B/W?

I've heard of this paper, with similar reviews as yours. Where can I 
find it? And, which IP profile are you using with it?

thanks

impression is that I'm really liking the Entrada Natural. My next 
favorites are the Epson Velvet and Ultrasmooth. Surface and base 
paper color of Entrada Natural, to my eye/feel, looks nearly 
identical to Ultrasmooth. But, it seems to print a little "brighter" 
on my Epson 2200, UC inks, with IP driver.
