Digital BW, The Print

Duane,

One thing I do to try and get people started is supply curves or settings
for some papers that I think are reasonably good.  In my information sheets
for the particular printer and inkset I also make some comments about the
papers listed there.  I suppose I could include more about the papers at
least on those lists.  (The information pages are accessed from my index at
http://home1.gte.net/res09aij/index.htm.)

Given the number of papers out there, I can't possibly test them all.  There
seems to be an endless supply of over-hyped but average papers.

Paul,
Thanks for the response. I can see where it would get to be a chore.
What bugs me is that some of the better paper responses seem to be on
less than stellar longevity papers. Oh well!
Best.
Duane
