Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Epson Enhanced Matte and Epson Archival Matte

2011-12-03 by Richard Smallfield

Hi,
they are basically the same, though a pro printer acquaintance thinks 
there is a marginal difference in the surface texture - but I didn't 
see a difference personally when I was using them.

They don't hold heavy ink loads in the shadows too well, and can look 
a bit blotchy under close inspection in such areas.

I'm also on a budget and have used PremierArt in preference to 
Epson's cheap papers. Red River papers can be good value, too.

Good luck with the forced retirement,
Richard
