     The second layer coating composition in contact with the reverse side of the substrate is present on the substrate of the coated ink jet photographic papers of the present invention in any effective thickness. Typically, the total thickness of the second coating layer is from about 0.1 to about 25 microns and preferably from about 0.5 to 10 microns, although the thickness can be outside of these ranges. The second traction controlling composition on the reverse side of the substrate was derived using an experimental design similar to that used for the first layer composition. The difference between the first layer coating and the second layer coating is in their coefficient of friction, which is higher in the second coating due primarily to the increased amount of filler, or pigment. The binder is present in amounts of from about 70 parts by weight to about 7 parts by weight and preferably from 70 parts by weight to about 14 parts by weight, the antistatic agent is present in an amount of from about 20 parts by weight to about 1 parts by weight and preferably from about 20 parts by weight to about 3 parts by weight, the lightfastness agent is present in amounts of from about 6 parts by weight to about 1 parts by weight and preferably from about 6 parts by weight to about 2 parts by weight, the filler is present in amounts of from about 1 part by weight to about 90 parts by weight and preferably from about 1 part by weight to about 80 parts by weight, and the biocide compound is present in amounts of from about 3 parts by weight to about 1 part by weight. Based on 100 parts, the preferred composition range of the (1) binder, (2) antistatic agent, (3) lightfastness agent, (4) fillers, and (5) biocides in the second layer, the amounts are, for example, about (70+20+6+1+3) to about (14+3+2+80+1). 
     The binder polymers of the second layer are derived from those indicated herein for the first layer. Additional binders include latex polymers, such as polyester latex such as Eastman AQ 29D available from Eastman Chemical Company; cationic, anionic, and nonionic styrene-butadiene latexes (such as that available from Gen Corp Polymer Products, such as RES 4040 and RES 4100 available from Unocal Chemicals, and such as DL 6672A, DL6638A, and DL6663A, available from Dow Chemical Company), ethylene-vinylacetate latex (such as Airflex 400 available from Air Products and Chemicals Inc.), vinyl acetate-acrylic copolymer latexes (such as synthemul 97-726 available from Reichhold Chemical Inc, Resyn 25-1110 and Resyn 25-1140 available from National Starch Company, and RES 3103 available from Unocal Chemicals, as well as mixtures thereof. 
     Monoester sulfosuccinates, diester sulfosuccinates and sulfosuccinamates are anionic antistatic components which have been found suitable for use in the second coating in amounts of, for example, from about 20 parts by weight to about 3 parts by weight. Suitable cationic antistatic components comprise diamino alkanes; quaternary salts; quaternary acrylic copolymer latexes; ammonium quaternary salts as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,320,902; phosphonium quaternary salts as disclosed in copending application U.S. Ser. No. 08/034,917; and sulfonium, thiazolium and benzothiazolium quaternary salts as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,314,747. 
     The fillers/pigments, the lightfastness agents, and the biocides of the second layer are similar to or the same as those components for the first layer coating composition. 
     The coating compositions of the present invention can be applied to the substrate by any suitable technique. For example, the layer coatings can be applied by a number of known techniques, including melt extrusion, reverse roll coating, solvent extrusion, and dip coating processes. In dip coating, a web of material to be coated is transported below the surface of the coating material (which generally is dissolved in a solvent) by a single roll in such a manner that the exposed site is saturated, followed by the removal of any excess coating by a blade, bar, or squeeze roll; the process is then repeated with the appropriate coating materials for application of the other layered coatings. With reverse roll coating, the premetered coating material (which generally is dissolved in a solvent) is transferred from a steel applicator roll onto the web material to be coated. The metering roll is stationary or is rotating slowly in the direction opposite to that of the applicator roll. In slot extrusion coating, a flat die is used to apply coating material (which generally is dissolved in a solvent) with the die lips in close proximity to the web of material to be coated. The die can have one or more slots if multilayers are to be applied simultaneously. In the multilayer slot coating, the coating solutions form a liquid stack in the gap where the liquids come in the contact with the moving web to form a coating. The stability of the interface between the two layers depends on wet thickness, density and viscosity ratios of both layers which need to be kept as close to one as possible. Once the desired amount of coating has been applied to the web, the coating is dried, typically at from about 25 to about 150° C. in an air dryer. 
     The Hercules size values recited herein were measured on the Hercules sizing tester (available from Hercules Incorporated) as described in TAPPI STANDARD T-530 pm-83, issued by the Technical Association of the Pulp and Paper Industry. This method is closely related to the widely used ink flotation test. The TAPPI method has the advantage over the ink flotation test of detecting the end point photometrically. The TAPPI method employs a mildly acidic aqueous dye solution as the penetrating component to permit optical detection of the liquid front as it moves through the paper. The apparatus determines the time required for the reflectance of the sheet surface not in contact with the penetrant to drop to a predetermined (80 percent) percentage of its original reflectance. 
     The porosity values recited herein were measured with a Parker Print-Surf porosimeter, which records the volume of air per minute flowing through a sheet of paper. The edge raggedness values recited in the present application were measured using an Olympus microscope equipped with a camera capable of enlarging the recorded ink jet images. The edge raggedness value is the distance in millimeters for the intercolor bleed on a checkerboard pattern. 
     The coated ink jet photographic papers of the present invention exhibit reduced curl upon being printed with aqueous inks. Generally, &#34;curl&#34; refers to the distance between the base line of the arc formed by recording sheet when viewed in cross-section across its width (or shorter dimension, for example, 8.5 inches in an 8.5 by 11 inch sheet, as opposed to length, or longer dimension, for example, 11 inches in an 8.5 by 11 inch sheet) and the midpoint of the arc. To measure curl, a sheet can be held with the thumb and forefinger in the middle of one of the long edges of the sheet (for example, in the middle of one of the 11 inch edges in an 8.5 by 11 inch sheet) and the arc formed by the sheet can be matched against a pre-drawn standard template curve. 
     The lightfastness values of the ink jet images were measured in the Mark V Lightfastness Tester obtained from Microscal Company, London, England. 
     The gloss values recited herein were obtained on a 75° Gloss meter, Glossgard from Pacific Scientific (Gardner/Neotec Instrument Division). The edge raggedness values recited in the present application were measured using an Olympus microscope equipped with a camera capable of enlarging the recorded ink jet images. The edge raggedness value is the distance in millimeters for the intercolor bleed on a checkerboard pattern. 
     The optical density measurements recited herein were obtained on a Pacific Spectrograph Color System which consists of two major components, an optical sensor and a data terminal. The optical sensor employs a 6 inch integrating sphere to provide diffuse illumination and 2 degrees viewing. This sensor can be used to measure both transmission and reflectance samples. When reflectance samples are measured, a specular component may be included. A high resolution, full dispersion, grating monochromator was used to scan the spectrum from 380 to 720 nanometers (nm). The data terminal features a 12 inch CRT display, numerical keyboard for selection of operating parameters, and the entry of tristimulus values, and an alphanumeric keyboard for entry of product standard information. The print through value as characterized by the printing industry is Log base 10 (reflectance of a single sheet of unprinted paper against a black background/reflectance of the back side of a black printed area against a black background) measured at a wavelength of 560 nanometers.
