Digital BW, The Print

OK, I found the sample Epson "Premium Brught White Paper."  We'd call it
copy paper if we didn't know better.  It is thin, un-coated, and looks like
any other cheap copy paper.  The Eboni dmax in a 1280 is 1.45.  The ramp is
a bit on the blotchy side, but not as bad as most uncoated paper I've tried.

I would not consider this a serious photo paper.

The Wilhelm report below is worth reading if for no other reason than to see
him trash the Kodak fade test procedures.

Try this:

It's a plain, white Epson paper.
It's probably too thin for photographs, but I wonder about the make-
up since it has OBA.
