EXCELLENT with pigmented ink
I use this with my Canon Pro9500 pigmented ink printer with excellent results. I'm picky about papers becasue I sell my prints in a gallery. I expect my printed colors to match my calibrated screen precisely. Using the print profile supplied by Ilford for my printer, color rendition, as well as shadow and highlight rendidion is as true as with Canon papers (which are of course outstanding).<br /><br />The texture is exactly what I want for my wildlife prints. The term "pearl" describes it well. Not matte, and not quite semi-gloss, it is somewhere in between. The texture is like a very fine matte, but with a sheen that is more lively, much like a pearl. Canon does not have a comparable paper, so I am quite pleased this works so well.<br /><br />This is the only third party paper I have used that gives comparable results to proprietary paper when used with a vendor-supplied printer profile. I can't say it would work with other printers, but with Canon Lucia pigmented inks, I have only praise.
