Digital BW, The Print

I give each paper the "tongue" test to be sure it has not been packaged
incorrectly.  I also test several media type settings to be sure the paper
is not being overloaded.  Merlin Velvet, for example, did better with a
light load.

I really think a major reason Photo Rag is so popular is that it hits 1.7 on
the dmax.  It's the champ.  Dynamic range is a major attribute that we're
after, and until a paper gets over 1.6 dmax it's really not much of a
contender in my view.
