Re: [Digital BW] Warm Tone Paper

2005-07-06 by Djon

My favorite paper for people pictures and anything else that's not
harsh and moderne is Epson Entrada Natural. It's not whitened, warm
white...like Kodak's excellent but little-known high-silver portrait
papers. 

I use the heavy stuff, 300gsm, though I'm having my first
print-jamming experience on my 2200 after two years, presumably having
something to with the temperature (80deg indoors). 300gsm in 13X19
prints quite nicely from the top slot, but only if it's physically
curved a very little in advance to reduce its stiffness. Entrada has
been blamed for "flaking," but that was evidently a matter of some
early lots that weren't dusted well before packaging...I always blow
air on each sheet for that reason and only saw "flaking" before I
started that.
