RE: [Digital BW] Help get me started...

I use the NK-7 inks in an R800.  I am fairly sure that they cannot print on
glossy (or semi glossy) papers.  They do however produce wonderful prints on
Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Satin which, whilst not semi gloss by any measure, does
have a lovely "sheen" to it.  I suspect that this is as close as you can get
to glossy with these inks.  No doubt someone more knowledgeable than me will
chip in with a definitive answer for you.

  Hello,

  I need help making sure I'm doing the right thing (done as much searching
archives as I can
  stand). Here is where I'm at:

  Epson 2200
  Piezography NT7 inks
  Harrington RIP

  I'm looking for a semi-gloss with a high D-Max and clean whites. Not sure
if I'm for or
  against a brightener. I'll be selling these unmounted so I'd like a
thicker paper.

  Thoughts? Warnings?
