     The Art of Digital Fine Art printing
"....I am very impressed with the book you are about to read. It’s information like this that has helped to raise the quality of digital output and reduce the traditional art world’s resistance to the use of digital tools in art. It is a book written by someone who KNOWS fine art digital printmaking. Uwe’s style is concise and to the point. This comprehensive and complete guide to fine art digital printmaking should be included in the library of anyone who is serious about making fine art digital prints...."

Strengths

  • nice stipple to it, random, fairly subtle, good black

Weaknesses

  • prints look a tad yellow compared to the other glossy dried matte wanabees

Uwe Steinmueller

We first used this paper on other printers and did not care too much about the surface. With the HP Z3100 using the Gloss Enhancer it looks quite excellent.
