we absolutely agree with your statement which, infact, corresponds to
our findings. Uncoated papers requires a different ink than inkjet papers.
We also found that fine art paper requires an ink base depending of
the use they are made for. For example, some of our bases tested ok on
watercolor paper but not ok for printmaking or etching papers and
viceversa.

Cheers.
