advice for buying papers (and inks) for 1160/1290

advice for buying papers (and inks) for 1160/1290

2002-03-11 by bjornaagedk

I have followed this list for a couple of weeks, and am now about 
to order inks and papers from MIS to print my first BW and Color 
Archival prints. 
I have 2 Epson printers, the 1290 and the 1160.

My idea was to start out with buying MIS Quadtone FS inks for the 
1160 and MIS Color Archival inks for the 1290.  (Would Color 
Archival inks give the best result at the Epson 1290?)

I need an advice for which papers to buy. I would like to buy 3 
different papers that gives the best result with either one or both 
printer/ink-combinations.

Which papers can you recommend?

Thanks for any advices and comments you may have before I 
buy.
