RE: [Digital BW] RE: good paper for UT2 and epson 1280

Michael,

I'm definitely interested in good "glossy" papers, but virtually all I see
aside from the Epson Premium group and Costco are obviously acidic and will
not last.  The vast majority of other RC papers also have horrible bronzing.


Do you have third-party accelerated aging tests that show the paper will
last for ">200 years"?  Can you represent that they are acid free?  

I understand that most people probably don't care.  After all, Ilford glossy
papers are very popular -- great dmax and reasonably priced.  However, we've
lost a whole generation of color prints due to them self-destructing.  What
the market really needs is cheap paper that looks good and will last.

We have great luster and semi-matte papers available in all sheet sizes.
Sample packs are available.

For a paper with more "sheen," the Premium Semigloss might do it. Many like

Luster, but I prefer the Semigloss and Semimatte, which for some reason is

only available in rolls.
