Re: Recommendation for photo paper brand and supplier in UK please

There are just so many permutations with inks/papers and make of printer 
that only by testing yourself IME works.

Obviously the best starting point in own manufacturers and inks. However
if 
you are with a photo group see if you can swap a sheet to try for a test.

One surprise recently was 50 sheets A4 glossy from Asda. A lightweight
paper 
180gsm that was £5.97 but with an HP printer using Vivera HP inks it 
produced amazing tonal range in the shadow to midtones. It does however 
require careful handling and long drying times as the surface scratches
very 
easily.

I also bought Fuji Multijet 270gsm gloss and was blocking in the shadows
and 
very neutral tones. I had bought by necessity as that was all they had
when 
I needed paper Kodak Ultima. The light fastness of this paper is 
extraordinary. Colours are quite bright and punch though.
