RE: Paper for proofing



Check out Epson Commercial Semimatte. I show typical white measurements (from three stacked sheets) as L 95.3, a 0.1, b 0.8, measured on an Eye-One.

<http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/ProductMediaSpec.jsp?BV_UseBVCookie=yes&infoType=Overview&oid=-9802&category=Products>

Basis weight		155 gsm
Thickness		6.5 mil
ISO brightness	88%
Opacity			91%
Base material		Resin coated paper
Base color		Commercial
Surface finish		Semimatte

Gas-fastness	
Excellent with EPSON Archival and UltraChrome Ink; poor with dye-based ink.
With regard to dye-based images, lamination or framing under glass greatly increases gas-fastness and the life of the print.

Resistance to water
Good
Bleeding does not occur with incidental water contact. However, encapsulated lamination is recommended in wet conditions.

Ink drying time
Immediate (less than 30 seconds)
Ink is dry to the touch after printing. However, it takes 24 hours before it cures and becomes durable.

Handling requirements
Use care
Handle with care to avoid scratching and kinking.

Lamination feasibility
Hot or cold lamination
Lamination extends the life of the print and increases durability.
