Storing paper

[dumainew]

What's the best way, or at least a satisfactory way, to store foto paper (Use Epson Luster and Ultra Premium Glossy)? I'm in New Orleans- it's hot and humid. But I keep the air conditioner on low. And I keep the paper in it's original container inside of a cardboard box out of the light. Suggestions and help appreciated. Thanks. Richard

Sheets should be stored horizontally and wrapped in a moisture barrier. (Do Epson sheets come wrapped in plastic? Canson sheets do.) It is doubtful the boxes they came in are acid free, hence the plastic, but you could test the boxes with a pH pen.

Rolls should be stored vertically. I have never bought a roll that wasn't wrapped in a plastic sleeve.

Thank you all for your suggestions.
There's nowhere else I know to get help like LuLa.
