Re: Interesting new papers- Eclipse, Epson FA

2001-08-15 by antonisphoto@yahoo.com

Steve,

could you comment on the relative strength of the black on these papers?
Have you seen them both with the hexatones and the piezo (side by side 
preferably)?
The Eclipse looks miserable with piezo, mainly because it lacks a good black. 
But I hear the Epson FA smooth is a winner in piezo, so I am guessing it wins 
with both inksets.

Thanks for the mini review. Please update us along the way.
