Digital BW, The Print

Hi Paul,

many thanks!

Yes, it's the 271gsm matte paper. ..from what matte inkjet 
prints I've seen, what I've read about the r1800 3-mk, and 
the look of this paper, I guess I'll be sticking with this 
approach for a while. But I'm sure the discussions in group 
will tempt me to try other methods too. 

Looking forward to making the first prints next week.


thanks,
espen
