Surprised that you were surprised.

Museo Silver Rag is cut from the same cloth (so to speak) as Innova F and is
a gloss paper requiring PK.

I cannot speak more highly of Innova F. Currently printing a series of ~25
13x19" black and white prints on this paper and they are blowing me away.
Rich, deep, very three-dimensional-ish.

Using matte paper when this paper is available is a very poor alternative in
my opinion with everything else being equal.

I use the 2400 but will get a 3800 as soon as I can get my hands on one.

Dave.
