The Ilford Classic Pearl is a very beautiful paper but I feel it's a little more fragil and has longer drying time than HP Premium Plus. There once was a Kodak Premium Photo paper (NOT instant dry) but it came and went almost without notice. Note the distinction between the Kodak Premium Picture and Premium Photo, as the former has some gloss differential problem while the later prints even better than HP. These days if you are lucky you may find some on Ebay. I know you will love the Ilford Classic Pearl. At least for now we still have an alternate source of swellable media. The only complaint I have about the Ilford is it's not available in rolls. --nick ------------------------------------ Website: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPDesignJet_Printers Post message: [email protected] Subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] List owner: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo!
