Re: Moab Entrada question

2004-10-12 by Antonis

Bernie,

there is nothing like testing it yourself. It would be worth your trouble
to ask for a trial package from Moab. Since you print on mostly white
papers like EAM, you may like the whiter version better. And my guess
is that for anything bigger than letter size, the 300 will feel more
solid - though not worth the extra money if you frame behind glass.

Dmax on the Entrada is in the 1.61 - 1.67 range, which is just below
the Hahnemuhle papers (1.66 - 1.74). If dmax is your primary
criterion, Photo Rag or White Velvet may give you better black
depending on your printer and inkset. You can look up more detailed
info  in the dMax_Finder here in the Files section.
