Digital BW, The Print

With MIS Eboni and the Epson driver in desktop printers I'm getting a dmax
for Innova papers that is between EEM and Photo Rag.  The dmax has varied a
bit from batch to batch.

I don't have any objective ways to test the toughness of the surface, but my
experience in handling the papers is that the Innova papers have a more
durable coating.

In general, I'm not seeing any significant flaking with the papers.  The
main defects I'm seeing in the papers is occasional random reflective points
(aluminum flakes?) and darker beige spots.  These are all very small, but I
occasionally will not use a piece of paper due to them.
