Re: Anyone try the new piezo paper?

2003-11-20 by digikdm

Yes, I've tried the new Museum White Piezo paper. I don't use piezo  
inks however. I use ImagePrint software on an Epson 2200. I used the 
profile for epson velvet fine art and got a beautiful B&W print. Have 
not printed color yet.Assuming
this paper is as archival as velvet fine art paper( that might be a 
big assumption), it is the best paper I've come across. It is thick 
and very white( as white as epson enhanced matte). Blacks are as deep 
as on any epson paper by visual inspection. My only problem is that I 
have no specific paper profile for the ultrachrome inks using 
imageprint sofware.
