Review 1 of 2

Price Paid: $0.00

Summary:

I use the paper on an Epson 2100 (same as 2200) and overall, reasonably happy with the paper - but - the colour profiles supplied by Epson resulted in colours nowhere near accurate, and the surface of the paper is not flat, but looks slightly blistered. Got over the color accuracy by making my own colour profiles with Praxisoft WiziWYG, but no solution for the blistered surface.

Strengths:

Wide colour range Reasonable price Easy to find in local shops

Weaknesses:

Supplied Colour profiles Surface of paper rough

Similar Products Used:

Epson Matt HP Paper

Customer Service:

Epson technical specialist was great to talk to - very imformative (once you get past first line support!)

Summary:

My paper of choice for color, I use an Epson 2200 and the results are stunning. I prefer matte papers for B&W but they don't give color the punch this semi-gloss has.

Strengths:

Saturation, bright whites, weight.

Weaknesses:

none

Similar Products Used:

Epson, Kodak
