For those who like our Condor BriteWhite paper, we now have a slightly thinner version (still 100% cotton) - Merlin BW, and a high alphacellulose version (acid-free, lignin-free) - Grayhawk BW. All are coated both sides.

We also have Condor Natural and Merlin Natural available now - coated both sides and OBA free 100% cotton. 

We have 13x19 sheets and available soon 13" wide rolls. 17" wide rolls are in production now.

  Subject: [Digital BW] Best paper bargains?


  Economy is a life reality for me right now, and I'm wondering
  what some of the better paper bargains (and suppliers, I suppose)
  are out there right now.

  To date, I've been using EEM and Matte Scrapbook in 8.5x11
  on a C86/MIS combo. The latter seems to be a good value in a
  cotton paper.

  I have a new 2200, and note that Matte Scrapbook isn't available
  in larger sheets.  I've been using EEM in my initial trials with QTR
  GUI (I use PictureWindow Pro) (and printing color). 

  For paper choices, I don't have the technology/know-how to create
  custom profiles, so that may limit my paper choices, I imagine.

  I note that Clayton's recently discussed Moab Kayenta (sp?) seems
  a rather good value compared to EEM, and if it's archival properties
  stand up, a very good value.

  In 13x19, what papers might I consider balancing quality and value?
  Should I simply forgo cotton fiber papers if economy is a major
  consideration?

  Thanks so much.

  Scott
