Hi Marne - The inks contain substances like glycol which permeate the paper and then slowly evaporate. If the print is matted and framed, the vapors can wind up being deposited as a film on the inside of the glass. To be honest, the film is usually less than obvious if you are not looking for it

Epson Ultra Premium Luster yields deep, dark blacks on the R2400 printer with the corresponding ICC profile. It's probably the best of the papers designed for use with the Photo Black ink set. However, I also like Enhanced Matte (which has a new name that I've forgotten) and Velvet Fine Art.

Thanks, Ken. A couple of years ago I did a 55 image show of snow crystals - all images 12 x 12 in 18x20 frames. I had everything printed a month in advance, and laid the prints (premium semigloss paper) on sheets of brown frame backing paper, figuring it would work well to soak up the extra

Does anyone have recommendations regarding a good, high quality, acid-free, archival, paper for use in an Epson 2200? In the past I've printed color images on either Semi Gloss or Premium Lustre papers, and those have been OK. The only probelm with them is that there is a gloss differential
