Have had an Epson 3800 for the past three years. Going to order a Canon iPF 6300 very soon. I have used Epson's Premium luster for most of my photographic work. Question: Will the Epson Premium Luster look significantly different with the Canon inks? I will be having custom ICC profiles made. Do you have any suggestions for other high quality papers that will get me that look I have been used to, or possibly even a better look? I do print color and black and white for what it is worth.
not sure how it would look but I have really nice results using Ilford Gold Fibre Silk and Epson Exhibition Fiber Paper on my Epson 3800 , for color and B&W.

In my opinion they're much better than Canon's own. Canon tends to brighten the heck out of their papers, which can lead to a visibly blue paper white.
Thanks for the information. I am glad to hear that. I really do not think that Canon is known for their photographic papers and really do not want to start using them. I just thought that the Canon inks would be optimized with their papers and the same with Epson inks and papers.
I switched from Epson Premium Luster to Lexjet eSatin 300 gr. The Lexjet paper has a whiter base instead of the blue-gray Epson base, is much thicker than the Epson, and most importantly, does not say Epson on the back. It's my most used paper among many.
