Fine Art matte papers on roll
« on: May 19, 2011, 12:25:58 pm »

I've been using Crane Museo Portfolio Rag - 44" x 50'  They (intellicote) has recalled their latest batch due to streaking.  I need a good back up until they get their act together. suggestions for matte paper only, please - and must be on a roll that comes in the 44" width. I've tried Moab Entrada, and it's just ok, not great blacks - even with a custom profile.

I've tried Canson Rag Photographique.  Beautiful prints, the detail and blacks are great.  The surface is VERY delicate!  Not durable at all!

Some suggestions here: http://www.imagescience.com.au/kb/questions/43/Buying+Guide+to+Papers+for+Pigment+Ink+Inkjet+Printers

With commentary. One option is Hahnemuehle Photo Rag.

Canson RP and Hahnemuhle HPR are not as warm and the Portfolio Rag the OP wanted to come close to...

The Epson naturals, maybe the Ultra Smooth Fine Art, Premiere Alise Natural, are all closer in hue to Portfolio Rag.
