Once more "what is this paper, really"

2004-09-08 by Douglas Meeuwsen

I check this the list a little bit ago, and am trying again. What is 
the lumijet "radiant white rag-enhanced" 290 gsm also known as? I 
suspect it may be epson velvet enhanced radiant white. It works very 
well for me. I just got some more, and it came with a free box of 
lumijet museum parchment. My first test print that is coming out of my 
1280 right now looks awesome. WOW. I think this is the best print i 
have ever made. You can see the texture in the image, but with this 
image of an elegantly appointed interior, It looks great. Anybody know 
what this paper is? I am asking about both lumijet "radiant 
white-enhanced" and "museum parchment-enhanced". It is kind of 
thin.(210 gsm) The price was reasonable. 24 dollars for 20 sheets of 
EACH at our local store. Both say they are optimised for pigment inks. 
I use the MIS UT2.
