Morrison,I've followed your suggestion and ordered a packet of BSM. I\ufffdm
using MIS VM-Inks in an Epson 980(a small 1160) ,Paul's curves and RGB
space.What particular settings you use for this paper? Set it as Matte or
Glossy? Any profiles or adjusted curves?
One other point. Since the printer driver has a profile for my printer,why
Paul recommends the "Same as source" profile to print?

Best whishes,

I don't use the epson driver...so I can't comment.  Does anyone have a
preferred epson driver workflow for glossy/semi-gloss papers.  The one's
that I've tried (Jeff Randall's RGB workflow) haven't worked for glossy
papers.  I use the Epson Premium Glossy setting in the Piezo Driver with
good results.  Currently I'm having colorbyte do a quad profile for
Semi-Matte printed  with Imageprint.
