Title: Duo Papers for PK ink
Post by: Alistair on August 24, 2011, 04:54:00 am

Hi All,

Is anyone out there using a dual sided paper which takes PK ink (Epson K3 Vivid) that they recommend? Am looking for a good quality paper, ideally rag but not TOO heavy. Any suggestions welcome.

I will tell you that the Ilford Luster Duo is really nice with PK..

The only glossy duo papers I'm aware of are the ones from Red River:

45lb. Zeppelin SemiGloss
86lb. Pecos River Gloss Duo

Neither of them are rag papers though.

The only rag papers I know to use PK, are Museo Silver Rag, Canson Platine
and the Hahnemühle range of Photo Rag; Satin, Baryta and Pearl.
Maybe there are some more. But duo? Nope.
