Hi JCO, Congrats on the new printer. You're going to love it. Epson Professional Photo Paper in glossy finish yields excellent results. The colors are more accurate than Ilford or Kodak glossy. However, Ilford makes a super "watercolor style" paper. It's called Ilford Fine Art Paper, and it yields beautiful prints. It's also quite expensive. A good bargain paper is Epson Archival Matte. It's a flat matte finish paper, and it produces very nice prints. Paul Stenquist
