Choice Stationary photo papers
Has anyone had experience using Choice Stationary photo papers?
I have a new Epson printer and wish to establish standards for my future
work.
I have two categories- the first is for high quality for a restricted number
of prints which I assume would be better using Epson paper. This is
expensive and not required for the remainder which are holiday and family
snaps and I was looking at a cheaper alternative with a reasonable quality.
I am looking for advice
Blair

Re: Choice Stationary photo papers
Thanks for your help. Unfortunately I live in Scotland and we don't yet have
a Walmark
I have experienced using Walmark on my visit to my cousin in Fayetteville,
Arkansas. Wish we had one here

Re: Choice Stationary photo papers
oh,

most photo quality papers
can be used on all photo
reproducing printers.

the packages will also
notate details that are
specific so as to
match the printers
requirements.

so photo quality papers
regardless of their manufacturer
designed for ink jets have to
be used for ink jet photo
printers to ensure optimal
quality.

it is impossible for us to
say which is better for
you because every pc has
a configuration that is different.

what i "strongly" recommend
when you proceed with a
print project is to ensure that
your computer is "dedicated"
to that sole task.

if it is not, then the computer
will experience interruptions
by services or programs installed
and the data output going to
the printer will become corrupted
and you will have an expensive
piece of photo paper with images
similar to a picasso.

another tip is that the photo
can always be printed on
photo paper. then that
printed page can be taken
to a copy store specializing
in high quality copying.

therefore you can maximize
your time and save much ink
and paper by taking that photo
to that copying store and have
it reproduced by high quality
photo copiers that can use
plain or textured paper.

likewise, such store can also
take your usb flash with the
file version of the picture and
outputed to photo paper via
their computerized system.

that being said, you might
want to ensure to use a
graphics program like
photo shop to ensure that
the raw photo taken by the camera
is absolutely perfect before
sending it to the printer or
out for printing.

Re: Choice Stationary photo papers
I have been with choice stationers since they first started in Minehead Nth
Somerset, and the quality of their Photographic papers is the best I have
used so far, in fact I had 4 packs delivered yesterday and one was 210gsm
which I am going to try, at the moment I am using 180gsm at £2.99 for 20
sheets you cannot go wrong, give it a try, you can order on line :-
