Christina,

Be warned:

I have had issues feeding both the Hahnemühle Photo Rag Smooth 308gsm and Bamboo papers with the R2400. They're lovely papers ... a little softer rendering than the Epson Velvet Fine Art with a warmer color and a smoother surface texture, but they often prove to be frustrating to me.

I've gotten best results using the Epson Ultrasmooth Fine Art setting in the driver with them, and use the Hahnemühle ICC profiles. I like them particularly for warm-toned B&W work. The Velvet Fine Art's cooler base tone gives more pop for color work, IMO.

Thanks, Godfrey. I plan to buy some paper tomorrow! Cheers, Christine


Hahnemühle's documentation is what's important in this case.

I've used their Photo Rag Smooth 308gsm mostly, with the R2400.
