Hello Bob, >ok..I dont really like the epson paper, it just doesnt feel right to >me, does anyone know a good preferably reletively inexpensive MATTE >paper? I like Kayenta by Moab. It's a double sided bright white paper, cooler toned than EEM, PR and many of the other matte papers. Last time I bought some (2 mos ago) it was only $15.95/50 at Adorama. It has become one of my favorite papers. Regards, Clayton Info on black and white digital printing at http://www.cjcom.net/digiprnarts.htm

I've been futzing with Premier Premium Matte and Moab Kayenta. "Futzing" is the right word. Initial B&W results looked a bit "crispy" compared to EEM, but I haven't done much in the last week to get better results. It's on my "to do" list. My next experiment will be to try the QTR UC Entrada profile with the Kayenta. I recently got an Eye One (1st version), and someday soon will also attempt my first profile. Printing Kayenta with the Epson driver EEM driver profile actually looked just fine to my eye, but But anyway, Paul Roark mentions these two papers on his site. Alpha cellulose, but lignin free. Price is certainly right. Moab ships their Kayenta in a nice, convenient box. Might give these a whirl. Scott bob wrote:
