Digital BW, The Print

Being the sucker that I am and not afraid to throw caution to the 
wind, when I saw an ad in the local paper for Epson Glossy Photo 
Paper (buy one get one free); I jumped right on it. I do not usually 
use glossy paper but having just completed two paper curves for UT2 
ink on Epson Heayweight Matte paper and H'muhle Photo Matte paper; I 
wanted to see how the Original MIS FSN inks would work with those 
papers also. I recalled reading that FSN would not work with glossy 
paper because it would rub off it. Disregarding that warning memory, 
I jumped in and did it anyway. FSN doesn't have the robustness of UT2 
but can make a fine print if ihe ink/gamma is boosted in QTR. This 
seemed to work out fine. I haven't swiped my finger across the 
densest shadow yet. I want it to sit for a couple of hours, but the 
resulting image is very good. If it doesn't wipe off too easily, that 
may be another weapon (tool) in my arsenal (toolbox) to use with my 
photographic journeys. While this is drying I've just completed the 
UT2 ink paper curve for Epson Glossy Photo paper and am quite pleased 
with it also.
