In the article on the Epson 11800 printer it was mentioned that the displayed gamut plot was done on Epson Exhibition Matte paper. Is this a new paper from Epson, or just a renamed old paper or a typo?

As Jeff wrote, a typo, now fixed.

I also have clarified that the 11880 auto switches blacks, something that I originally failed to make as clear as I should have.

Michael, would like to hear more of your impressions of this paper compared to the other newer offerings in this category, including the baryta papers. It's unfortunate this new Epson paper is so expensive and is not offered in rolls, because so far it ranks at the top of my list for quality printing in both color and monotone. However Jim Doyle did mention to me that epson is experimenting with this paper in rolls so that may become a reality. Thanks, Eleanor

I've just printed on EEF 24x36 inch sheets. And they are really stiff!
I wonder how they look coming from a roll?
The prints are beautiful in color but to white for BW.
Same for Harman/Harmon, amazing gamut and blacks, but to "plastic" and white for a true bw.

My Oscar for bw on the baryta/fiber range goes to.......Innova Fiba Warmtone!
Did some large 44x60 inches on IWT, for an elder printmaster from his 60's neg, and
he said that they were better than his vintage Portriga.

BTW, what happened to Crane SilverRag? No one mention it anymore. And it's US made!
