Now if I could just find a paper similar to HP Pro Satin that works as well I would be even happier. (44" rolls are still defective).

Kodak Lustre may be a good replacement for the HP pro satin. although I don't know if it comes in 44 inch. I love the finish on it and haven't had any roller marks for some time now.

Doug, Sean Puckett recommended the Red River UltraPro Satin but it doesn't come in 44" rolls.

Harry, I'll have to look at the Kodak Lustre if it comes in 44" rolls.

Ron, Would love to try the Red River but no 44" rolls yet.

The Epson Exhibition Fiber sounded promising as well but some have mentioned gloss differential (which is my biggest complaint about most papers).

I have found a satin paper from Mediatech in Montreal, Canada, that has a great surface, slightly finer or flatter than the HP paper in a 44 inch roll. Works great with my Z3100..

It's called Satin Photographic Paper "Instant Dry" 10 mil. # JPX-PDQL comes in 44" x 90 feet also 24" , 36", 42", 50", 54" and 60"

they have lots of other kinds of paper as well, they specialize in paper for large format printing... Mostly commercial applications, it seems. Everything is house brand... but I'm impressed so far. You'll have to call them to get information or a swatch book.

cheers,
Paul

Thanks for the tip Paul. I went to their site but the English version isn't working. I'll have to check back later.
