This may explain the only problem I've noticed with Innova Cold Press Art. I
have one test print where a large patch of black has become scuffed or
burnished, on what appears to be the high points of the textured surface.
The black appears less solid as a result.

I purposefully was not careful handing my test prints, to see how well they
fared. Perhaps this was unfair, in that I might have had different results
doing the same thing, had I waited a few hours first. I'm going to try the
same thing, but wait overnight first.

Terry.
