have you tried the new epson ultra premium glossy paper? I wonder if  
you think that the ink sits on the top of it. To me, After a few  
images, I have zero gloss diferential, and I like sense of depth.  
Better than all of the other RC papers I have tried. It is possible  
that I just have not printed an image with blown highlights yet, but  
with the others, I always see some gloss diferential, even when the  
histogram looks good. When you see gloss dieferntial, it really gives  
the impression that the ink is just sitting on the paper. Of course,  
you have to turn it just so to see it, but this new epson paper so  
far has none, no matter how you turn it to the light. Maybe my mind  
will change later.....of course.
