This paper works brilliantly with the HP B9180 but is prone to head crash 
marks thanks to paper curl from ink load causing the coating to swell. I 
find I have very little trouble after dressing the paper so it is slightly 
the inverse of its natural curl, but someone else on the 
hp9100Series@yahoogroups.com list reports good results by slightly 
dampening the back of the paper with a slightly damp cloth immediately 
before printing.
