TRADITIONAL PHOTOPAPER by Epson

[Edmond Junker]

I do not know what is wrong with the so called Epson" traditional photopaper".
I use this paper all the time as it presents a certain similarity to the original baryta
in application during my old wet lab times.
If i say there must be something wrong with this product,it is because i do not see
any critics,nor good,nor bad,around.
Maybe someone can help me to clarify this matter?Thanks folks.

It's the same as Epson Exhibition Fibre - different name in different markets.

For the record, I think it's a horrible paper for anything designed to last. Good for short-term display (although, for most subjects for which I'd use Exhibition Fibre, I still prefer Moab Metallic Pearl) but the high OBA content doesn't lend itself to lasting images.

Check several tests of the EEF (aka Epson Traditional etc) at Aardenburg-Imaging and especially the paper white shift in time:

Membership is free but the institute can use some support though.

There is more going on in that paper than just the degradation of the OBAs.
