[Digital BW] Re: Anyone try Harman Gloss FB AL?

2007-10-01 by Steven Karafyllakis

Hi Gary;

This one is next on my list, if only because it got such a glowing 
review on Luminous Landscape...which inks did you use with it? any 
trouble with the surface fragility others have reported?

I just finished trying 5 'FB' papers being sold by Lexjet, I wish I 
knew who actually makes them. My favorites of those are the FB glossy 
warmtone, and their latest, called Elite. The Elite is a bit brighter 
and whiter than I was hoping, but I think I can get used to it, it 
really prints beautifully with the ABW OEM inks. I'm getting about a 
2.4 after dry-up. A coat of Premier on top kicks it up visibly. This 
makes my RC satin prints (which I was thinking were fairly good) look 
dull and lifeless!

I love progress!
