p.1 #1 · *Photo/Fine Art Papers? Best Place to Purchase Online?**

Just purchased an Epson R2880 and would like to purchase some good lustre photo papers as well as some fine art papers to print on. Most of the stores around here only sell glossy.

Any recommendations of where to look?

I'm mostly interested in printing, 5x7s, 8x10s, 11x14s.

Thanks

Red River Ultra Pro Satin is great luster paper. Only your eyes will be able to judge for your taste. Get a sample pack of paper from them and have fun! Make sure you have extra ink for your printer, when that sample pack arrives you will go nuts printing and comparing.

Take your typical photo that you print and try it across several papers in the sample pack. Have other people give their opinion and put the prints under typical lighting conditions where they would normally be displayed when comparing. Have someone mix the prints up and lay them out for you to look at so you can make an unbiased decision.
