RE: [Digital BW] epson ultra premium?

2005-12-28 by Steve Bye

When I look at "For Use with Which Printers" on the Epson website this paper
does not appear to be recommended for the 2400 printer. 

 

Does anyone know whether this is a new paper? 

 

I could use a better very glossy paper. The Premium Glossy Photo Paper is
pretty good on the 2400, but not ideal. I have tried Pictorico Hi-Glass
White Film. It is interesting, but a little strange. I like Epson
Semi-Matte, but it is not available for the 2400.

Merry Christmas to all of you.....

Just got out the epson ultra-premium glossy paper that my sister sent  
me for Christmas. I really like it.
it is heavy...11.8 mil
Not as shiny as premium glossy
Matches the gloss of the K3 inks much better than Kirkland, so less  
gloss dif.
With the premium gloss media selected, and my +4+4 settings on the  
ABW color wheel, this paper makes a great looking print.
Next to both Premium glossy and kirkland, it looks better. The  
surface is real nice.
I think that if you have not liked glossy papers up till now, you  
should give it a try.
For me the smaller the print, the more I like it to be glossy. These  
4x6 prints just look great sitting over there.
Even at a distance they stand out. The image is really deep. On a  
tabeltop with some other kirkland and prem-gloss prints, the ultras  
just stand right out. Might be the images because they are all  
diferent images etc, but they really have some pop.
Anyone else tried this?
