I think some of it is due to newer better inks. Eboni was a huge 
improvement over the Generations G4 matte black. And that was even on 
some old GE (Royal Plush) that was about 5 years old. I didn't find too 
much difference between the old paper and the new paper, except for the 
occassional flake from the older paper. Profiles were exactly the same. 
So I would put down the flake reduction to better QC and better vacuums 
in the production line.
