Hi,

I have used this paper also, on both colour & B/W images, go to ilford.com and download and install the profile for this paper, if you have this already on your system, it may be a bad copy, I have had good quality screen to printer matching and good quality prints on this paper.

I'll try reloading the profile.

Thanks

thanks. Been thinking about getting some Hahnemule Photo Rag 308. We have prints made by others using that paper and like them very much.

all suggestions welcome!!!

I love Hahnemule paper but it very very expensive. The advice to proof on something cheaper is good advice. Also, with my Epson, somes it has a hard time grabbing the thicker art paper and it takes a few tries before the printer feed works. I don't know if this will be an issue the 9500 but patience is rewarded.

Good luck.

You won't be disappointed, it's a great printer, just control color management as mentioned.

I'm using Ilford's Gold Silk, and beautiful results.

I know, I tried this paper the other day for a B/W print - great.
