Hope this header caught your attention Jim Davis, although any other help much appreciated. I have been using Osprey on my EX and it prints well. I am considering the 3000 and or the 9000 (all going well at the bank) for the giclee market. I know you have both printers. Does the 9000 lay down more ink than the 3000; that is does the Osprey paper receive the ink differently from the two machines? Also I would appreciate your recommendations for a slightly heavier slightly textured paper that works on both machines. Something like Arches cold press 140 lb. I can't get that to work on my EX. But I can get it to work wonderfully on my HP 1120. I think any paper that works on the 9000 is the deciding factor for me i.e. it would take the heavier load of the 6 color print process. And Canvas! recommendations. What works? My first two inquiries to artists yielded orders for prints done on canvas. I liked the samples from Mile High Judy although my EX had a hard time grabbing them, they printed beautifully. Any other suggestions? archival of course :) Thanks Robert -- Work like you don't need the money. Love like you've never been hurt. Dance like nobody's watching - Please turn off HTML mail features.
