Ok, I've made a few prints on Premier Matte BW, and it's really
good... the best blacks I've seen, great detail, and I love the
smooth surface. Perfect... except that it's just a tad brighter and
colder than I would like. Ok, more than a tad, actually. I'm using
MIS carbon in the Y position on my 2400, which makes it hard to warm
up without a magenta color shift, and it's hard to match that white
with common mat boards. For those who have tried, does the Premier
Hot Press have similar qualities to the Matte BW (hope, hope) except
for the color?
