<< Hi Mark,
My remarks about digital negatives referred to earlier digital output,
not to the newest generation of printers. I don't happen to have one of
the newest printers and my prints from digital negatives, while pretty
detailed and subtle, can't equal the quality available from a direct
contact print from the in-camera negative. Having not compared with a
negative from the newer printers, I can't say what I'd think about that
comparison.
I settled reluctantly on Fabriano Uno Hot Press, for want of a better
solution. It's not as smooth as I want, but I tested all the papers in
the Daniel Smith catalog and this came the closest and I didn't have
time to look further at the time because I had a show to get out. What I
really want is like a Bristol plate surface. The Bristol will print
nicely and take one soak, but if you try to print it twice, it falls
apart as soon as it hits the water. If anyone knows of a paper with a
plate-like surface that will take multiple soaks, I'd be happy to know
about it.
