I've made an ICC using Paul's procedure for this double sided paper, nice for photo books: Results are good (Very bright paper)... but there are light marks in the dark areas, just has if there were too much ink. I tried with Matte-Heavyweight and Inket Photo Paper, Ilford recommends Archival Matte... which doesn't exist on R22O. Too good to be true! Low price, double sided, nice pics (except this pb) more punchy than EEM... but the result in the blacks is unacceptable. If someone has a trick to reduce the ink load... Francois

Try "Photo Quality Ink Jet Paper" (reduces load substantially) and "Ultra Premium Glossy Photo Paper" (works very well on some matte papers). Paul www.PaulRoark.com

I tried Premium Glossy, Ultra Glossy, in fact all paper types with photo quality option, and that's the same. And if you look at MIS site, they say somewhere it doesn't work on Ilford papers. Too good to be true. I'm back to glossy, my next try will be Ilford Printasia.
