Holy Moley! Jeez Louise, and Yikes!

I'm sort of bummed I ever printed on Luster paper!

My photos printed on the Luster paper simply look like pictures printed on paper. My photos printed on the Moab paper look like ART! The photos coming off my 7800 printed on the Moab Entrada Natural 300 are simply rich! The paper has real nice thick feel that I'm sure will look great matted and framed.

Just thought you'd like to know. :smile:

That is awesome, Mark. As you may have noticed, they can be a little fragile, (the printed part), but other than that I know what you mean - that paper is awesome as was the first one I requested, I think.. :) I'm trying to decide on a worthy file for you to print right now..

MArk,

I've been using the Moab Entrada 190.(I have an Epson 2400). Should I try the 300?

I love the results of the paper too.

Jack,

I couldn't say. I've never seen the 190. Once it's matted, unless the 190 is a bit wavy, the 300 seems like it will stay flatter.

Mark: I use both the 190 and 300 (Entrad Natural) on my Epson 2400 and my 4800. It depends upon the application. If you are going to dry mount using heat press, either one will work well. If you do not use heat or some type of positive adhearance across the full back of the paper, then use the 300 as it will hang better. If you are happy with the 190, there is no change to use the 300 (will require different feed path on the 2400). They look the same on the photo surface.
