Digital BW, The Print

all the 2200 prints on glossy and lustre type papers that I have seen 
do not look as good to me as matte paper prints behind glass.  the 
bronzing etc. is not terrible, but the pigment just seems to lay 
better on a matte paper.  ...lots of people are happy enough with it 
on other papers, just not me... 

...and compared to a dye based printer, I think that color from a 
1280 is probably better on any paper, but just slightly on matte... 
and it won't last the 90+ years that you'll get from the 2200.
