Not for me.  The Museo doesn't print well in the 3000 -- blotchy.  I have no
idea why it looks worse in that printer than the 1160.  Anyway, I prefer the
EAM smooth surface.

Also, the Museo black is only about 97% of EAM's.

Finally, in my fade tests, while the Museo was in the ballpark at the 50%
spot, the 90% patch faded more than twice as much as that of the EAM 90%
patch.
