Paper suggestions?

2007-09-04 by chriskjezp

I'm giddy with excitement as I await my 2400.  I'd like to try out a
few new papers as well.  With my 200 I've been proofing on EEM and
printing on PA205 almost exclusively.  I have tried Epson VFA and Moab
Kayenta and liked them both too.

I'm interested in the F-type papers, and wonder which of the three
(FAP, SR & USG) would be best to start out with?  I also wanted to try
Dourian Art after reading Clayton's "Paper Chase" article, but I've
since learned it's been discontinued.  Is there another lower-cost
alternative to Photo Rag that produces similar results to Dourian? 
And though I don't tend to like glossy prints, I've never seen one
done with a 2400 and I'm very curious :)... so if you could recommend
a good glossy paper to start with that would be great too.

Thanks for your help once again.

Chris
