I just got a box of this paper and ran a few B&W test prints today. I really like this paper. It has a sheen that's somewhat less than luster or semi-matte, and is a "soft" sheen rather than highly reflective (if that make sense). No "bronzing"/"gloss differential" that I can detect. (I'm printing with Matte Black on the 4800). It has a texture which seems to me to be heavier than ordinary Photo Rag (maybe's it's just the sheen that makes the texture look a bit more prominent?). I don't mind the texture, but i think Hahn. should also come out with a smooth (no texture) version, as there are occasions where a textureless surface is called for. The blacks were nice and deep and the paper itself is quite thick and substantial feeling. In short, this paper comes closer to an air-dried fiber glossy paper than any other inkjet paper I've used. (Note that I only printed B&W; I'll try some color soon).
