I've been much happier with the Ilford Galerie papers in the 7500. We used the Pictorico stuff fairly heavily up until about two years ago when we picked up the 7500, and since Pictorico wasn't offering roll paper we had to look at other materials. There were smaller packs of Pictorico, maybe your local supplier just doesn't want to carry them? I think that they've been dumped by their Canadian distributor. The Ilford is definitely cheaper. Try the smooth gloss from Ilford. Look for the packs that say Galerie and Instant Dry. -Aaron - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
