Epson Signature Worthy Fine Art Papers

[Norm Dulak]

Does anyone have experience with any of Epson's Signature Worthy Fine Art Papers? If so, what do you think of them?

According to Epson's literature:

Hot Press papers have a smooth surface and are available with a natural or bright white point,

Cold Press papers have a textured surface and are also available with a natural or bright white point, and

Velvet Fine Art paper has a fine textured surface with a very bright white finish.

Hi Norm, I have used the VFA, and it is a nice paper. You have to watch out if the papers have optical brighteners as there is debate about them fading. (makes the paper look whiter). Where I get some of my printing done, some of their premium papers are: Epson-Ultramsooth, Somerset Velvet, and Satin/Matte Canvas. And.... Hahnemuhle:
Museum Etching, Bright White, Bartya, and William Turner. Don't know much about the other papers you mentioned.

Thanks, Jackie, for the information.
