The proofing paper has small, thin black lines occasionally on the surface, a defect which occurred during converting this lot of paper. The paper and coating are fine, and on the proofing rolls there is a lot of perfect paper. I can send you a sample of what I am talking about so you can see for yourself if it will work for your purposes.

  Hawk Mountain Paper lists proofing papers for several
  of their quality papers, the prices are very
  attractive and competitive with EEM which is what I
  usually print on (for economic reasons).  The caveat
  is that there are MINUTE surface imperfections.  Has
  anyone had any experience with these proofing papers? 
  Have any idea of just how noticeable these
  imperfections are?  Gotta make my social security
  check go as far as possible.  I am currently using an
  Epson 900 Photo (uses the same inkset as 1280) and
  using the OEM ink that came with the printer, but soon
  I will be moving my eboni cart from my deceased 1280. 
  Any advice is appreciated.
