The Premier Art Smooth Hot Press 325 appears to have an upgraded coating relative to the 205.  

The 205 is the Epson Premier Art Scrapbook paper.  When a company like Epson puts its name on a paper, that freezes the specs, or so I'm told by the Premier Art rep.  So, Premier Imaging can't change that paper. 

It's my opinion that the 325 is a different paper, not just a thicker version of 205/Scrapbook.  The dmax is higher and the paper base is whiter.
