Title: do you like Epson Semi-gloss?

No one really talks about epson semi gloss. It looks like it's smoother than epson luster. Do you use it?

When I was using Epson papers, Premium Semigloss Photo Paper was my favorite. Moved away from it mainly because of "gloss differential" or "bronzing" issues (use the terminology of your choice!).

I'm now using a mix of Breathing Color media and Ilford media. The only Epson media I'm using (or recommending to my clients) is Epson Standard Proofing Paper (240) for, obviously, press proofing applications.

Terry

I use it a lot, even more than Luster.
Customers find equivalent it to the old Kodak N surface.
And it's good for laminating, which is not the case with Luster.
Even silicone face mounting.
