Getting away from the need to dry mount my silver prints is a major reason I
love this inkjet technology.  I was never satisfied with the non-dry-mounted
wet-darkroom prints.

I now use 2 tapes to hang EAM 16x20 prints behind an over-mount, all behind
acrylic or glass.  I'm on the central coast of CA, so the weather may be
more forgiving.  However, I think they are virtually perfect in terms of
flatness, and it is SO much easier and faster than dry mounting.
