Paper Thickness - Epson 1400

2010-01-04 by kwalsh74

I just got a 1400 and am about to drop some $$$ on 13x19 paper.  I'm wondering on thickness what route to go.  I'm probably going to do PA Alise or HPR, but the question is thicker or thinner?  I presume thinner feeds easier but may curl and hit the print head or perhaps curl more when framed.  

Of these options which you folks think would be the least fuss?

Alise 250g (16 mil)
Alise 300g (20 mil)
H. Photo Rag 188g
H. Photo Rag 308g

I suppose if I choose to do non-OBA it is going to be one of the Alises for sure since I can get the Museum version.

Thanks for any advice,

Ken
