Silver Rag and Wet Ink

2006-02-01 by Stephen M Martin

As are many of you, I am using the untried Crane Silver Rag. This morning I 
made a gallery poster for a show I have and printed it on the silver rag. It 
was in RGB but was put through all the usual stuff to mute the color. I use 
an Epson 4000 and used the IP profile. When the paper emerged, the photo 
part of the print smudged. (The line around it and the name had no problem). 
As I let it sit, I rubbed it to see if it was drying and it remains sticky 
to the touch. It feels like the ink is just piled up. My question is whether 
anyone else has experienced a problem with this paper and the UC inks.
