Re: OT: Paper Recommendations for Epson 2200

[Mark Cassino]

Thanks, Mark - I see that my regular supplier has the Hahnem�hle papers in 
stock, but only letter sized or larger rolls for the William Turner variety. 
Does it come in larger sheets?

Second - do you have a profile for that paper, or does it work with one of 
the Epson profiles?

Thanks -
MCC

A couple of months ago I upgraded from my old Epson 2000p to an Epson 
2200.
My main motivation was to be able to print good, neutral B&W, and I've 
been
very pleased with the 2200 in this regard. I've done some side by
comparisons with some fiber prints I did a few years ago, and the 2200 is
pretty much right there.

Using this printer opens up new avenues for paper - the 2000p was pretty
limited in regards to paper options. The 2200 offers much more 
flexibility,
though so far I've only printed on enhanced matte, Epson's Watercolor, and
Premium Lustre (the standard fare...)
Well, those are pretty standard for me on the Epson 2200. I do like the
Hahnemuehl William Turner fine art paper, though.
A few years ago I took a workshop with Mark Klett, who was printing with 
an
Epson 7500 and (I assume) the same basic UltraChrome ink set.
The Epson 7500 uses the older ink set from the 2000P. The newer 7600 is
one that has the Ultrachrome inks like the 2200.
Try the Hahnemuehl stuff. My choice for my own display prints.
