Re: [Digital BW] Re: Two more PK papers worthy of mention for B&W

2009-12-30 by Peter Palmieri

When using this paper is it necessary to change any of the settings in one's printer for paper thickness? And, should its sheets be fed normally from the paper tray. Also can rolls be fed normally? 

I am using an Epson 4800.

The 4800 manual states that paper with a thickness between .5 to 1.5 mm should be fed using the "Front Manual Feed Slot". 

Thanks

Peter

  On the Hahnemuhle site, it is described as "Baryta FB is a bright 
  white paper with an extra smooth surface and ultra glossy coating." 
  That implies that it is more like a ferrotyped F paper than an air 
  dried F paper with a very slight texture. Is their description 
  inaccurate?
