Digital BW, The Print

John,

Welcome! Glad you to see you here. 

I too am still looking for the EAM replacement with no great luck to 
date. Could live with Turner and German Etching but want that 
smoother finish and brighter white. Steadman says he has something up 
his sleeve and to be patient.

Any serious choice in rolls or even long sheets for the 13" wide 
printers appears to be non existent as far as I can tell. I did some 
shots with a 75mm lens on my 4X5 with a 2:1 print ratio in mind and a 
12 by 24 would be great.

I see Crane is making the new wonder paper for Epson. Antonis has met 
Robert Rex of Crane and who also contacted me about coating Museo (I 
hereby certify that I did not yield to any blandisments of free trips 
to Las Vegas, wads of cash, free paper, etc.) I have invited him to 
join the group and perhaps we can at least make our wants and needs 
known.
