Subject: [Digital BW] Hawk Mountain Sparrowhawk yellowing?

 

Hi,
I have been using Hawk Mountain Sparrowhawk for the last couple of months
and have found it a good weight and gives good results (with the exception
of large black areas which have a slight problem like EEM does with holding
the black ink - this is rarely a problem however).

Having just printed a portrait job with this paper, with good results, I've
just picked up a piece of the paper that was on my desk for at least two or
three weeks and saw slight discolouration around the edges.

This is a worry - I had thought that, seeing it's acid and lignin-free, it
would be very stable.

I've ordered some rolls of PremierArt Premium Matte but had stuck with the
Sparrowhawk for A4 rather than PremierArt Letter size, because I prefer that
aspect ratio, which fits a 35mm frame perfectly.

Maybe I'll just have to compromise and start using the PremierArt at Letter
size. Not big enough for a 6mb D70 image though.

Has anyone else had similar experiences?

thanks,
Richard
