Re: Epson Lustre

2005-01-27 by Pieris Berreitter

Thanks everyone for the tips. I was also happy to find that the
Wilhelm Imaging numbers for this paper meet the "after I'm dead"
criteria. Traceable archival testing is a must for any paper I use. As
I didn't hear about any other papers I will go for the Epson brand
(always wary of original mfg brands, I don't know why).

Roy I have been pleased with the Ilford Galerie Smooth Pearl but the
finish is too textured for my work at hand. Thanks for the pointer on
the QTR profiles though, I will try those next time I print on Ilford.
BTW that paper got rather poor fade results from an independant test I
found online (can't recall the link, it wasn't Wilhelm).
