On matte, it's the familiar subtle neutral purpley look many of us have seen over the years. On the photo surfaces, it goes much warmer as you have observed, more to a rosey hue. In fact, as you note with the Harman, I found myself gravitating to the OBA papers for that ink as it knocked back that red a bit. Others on this list that got my samples may recall that.

I do hate to ask. But... Is there any way to get the selenium look out 
of the Selenium MPS inkset on glossy surface substrates? That's really 
all I want -- the same look that I already get on matte papers on glossy 
papers. You know, consistency. Too much to ask? Wait, that's a 
rhetorical question. :D
