Re: [Digital BW] Best Rip for 2200, Best paper

2005-04-16 by Steve Kale

Personally I find that trying too many papers means a collection unused
stuff in the closet.  I only use EEM (for test prints), Hahnemuhle Photorag
and Permajet Alpha matte papers.  The last two must be loaded through the
rear loader.  I have not heard a truly compelling reason to move away from
these just yet (and some of the papers discussed on this forum aren't
available in the UK).
