I have used Epson matte papers in my Desklet 3820, a CMYK printer, with very good results. I made several stunning prints a year ago that show no signs of fading. I just want to make prints larger than 8x10! I suppose I should be able to get similar results using the 9800 tri-color and pigment black ink carts. But I also plan to experiment with Epson-compatible pigmented inks, i.e. the MIS hextones, in my 9800 carts. Sonrise --- In DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com, "H.
