EB6 paper recommendations - neutral

2010-03-06 by Mike Johnston

Hi,

I got a new Epson 1400 and set it up with the MIS EB6 inks.

I had some Epson Ultra Premium Presentation Paper so I tried it.

 

I really like the prints. There is a lot of detail I never saw before and
a lot more shadow detail than I saw with an R280 and Kirkland paper.

 

The prints are a little warm and I would like neutral prints.

Short of replacing the black with the HP black, which papers 
will give the most neutral images?

 

Paul Recommends Premier Art Smooth BW but that is a little pricey
for a hobby.

 

How neutral will Red River papers be?

Any other recommendations?

 

 

BTW, I printed on the Kirkland Glossy and the results were pretty good.

There is some bronzing and there is kind of a 3D effect but I liked it 
more than I thought I would after reading about this ink an glossy.

 

 

Thanks

Mike Johnston
