Re: [Digital BW] Test report: UT-R2/R220 on Ilford Smooth Heavyweight Matte ¨Paper

2006-04-08 by timeexposure

I tried Premium Glossy, Ultra Glossy, in fact all paper types with 
photo quality option, and that's the same.

And if you look at MIS site, they say somewhere it doesn't work on 
Ilford papers. Too good to be true.

I'm back to glossy, my next try will be Ilford Printasia.
