There has been talk of different papers on the 130. One person noted the 
Mitsubishi 
photograde gloss as a paper that is water resistant and worked for him.

I got some test sheets of this and also the photomatte and comparred them to 
the OCE 
photoperfect plus satin 7mil. that I have been using. This is a lot like the HP 
but a bit lighter 
weight and I have been paying $80 for a 100' roll

Both of them seem to compare well with what I have been using for image 
quality. 

I did a little unscientific water test with all 3 first just moistening my 
finger and rubbing it 
across a swatch. The Mitsubishi papers were barely affected while the OCE ran. 
I also tried 
dipping corners of each in a bowl of water for a few seconds. Here the OCE ran 
a lot, the 
mitsubishi gloss ran only slightly and the matte not at all.

It seems that roll stock in 24' is harder to come by. I located one source but 
have not tried 
ordering it yet. It is mitsubishi's own site: 
http://www.mitsubishiimaging.com/di/
index_di.asp  They list it for $122/ 100ft roll.

I think I will order the mitsubishi photo matte this time.
