I currently print my color work via Chromira onto fuji crystal archive glossy and my b+w work onto glossy fiber (kentmere fineprint) in the darkroom. Both have a very white base and obviously a smooth glossy finish.
I'm looking for something* that gets me as close as possible with inkjet (epson 3880).
No one seems to sell sample packs of glossy papers, only a mix of everything they sell (and I don't want).
I can't afford to by ten packs of paper to try out.
If I could do both color and b+w on one paper, that'd be great too.
The prices of inkjet paper are insane!
Here's a couple that have been suggested so far:
Hahnemuhle photo rag pearl
Harman By Hahnemuhle Gloss Baryta
Any other recommendations of readily available papers*?
Anyone have scrap samples they'd be willing to mail me?
