Can't help you on the paper choice as I prefer and only use matte
surface papers ... Epson Heavyweight Matte, Enhanced Matte and Velvet
Fine Art are my religion. ;-)
Regards the profiles, Epson has optional profile packages on the
website that should be installable into your system. They seem to
cover all their papers, but I haven't looked too specifically into
the R2200 sets as I use the R2400.

Hi all,
My current roll of printer paper is almost finished and I'm
considering different options for restocking. The roll I'm using
at the moment is Premium Glossy which I was lucky to find in an
Australian-owned retail chain. They don't seem to stock it anymore
so it looks like the only stuff I can get in this size is Premium
Semigloss.
There are a couple of interesting-looking papers which aren't
available here so I'm thinking of ordering from B+H while the
exchange rate is good. The first is Premium Luster which
photographers seem to be raving about. The other is the PremierArt
Water Resistant Canvas as I'm interested in trying out canvas
printing. Despite being canvas it's actually listed as having a
glossy surface which presumably means I won't need to use the Matte
Black ink.
I'd appreciate it if anyone has used either of these papers and
could offer comments.
On another note I'd love it if I could convince my printer that
it's really a 2200. This means I could load the US driver which
has support for the whole range of papers. I really hate it when
manufacturers arbitrarily restrict certain markets.
Cheers,
- Dave
