My Epson R2400 benchmark and Crane Museo Fine Art Paper

My Epson R2400 printer started displaying its low ink message. Three K-3 ink containers were impacted: light black, light magenta, light cyan. The rest of the inks are at 50 percent. I bought these at my local photographic supplier Simonds Photographic. The inks cost me $13.99 a piece. I have gauged my usage to be 35 8x10’s, all printed on Epson Premium Luster matt paper, and 8-10 4x6’s, printed on Kodak Ultima Photo paper in matt finish. Approximately 10 of the 35 prints were black and white. This is my first benchmark with my new printer.

While at Simonds, I looked for the new Crane Museo Silver Rag, which, according to
this review, is supposed to be one of the best papers to use for fine art black and white prints. The dealer did not have any left. I decided to try this paper’s predecessor, Museo, still considered a good choice for black and white prints. I wasn’t prepared for the fine quality of the print and the superb texture and feel of real paper. I was impressed. 25 sheets cost me $49.95. I downloaded the paper profile from Crane's website and it worked perfectly. This paper is well worth a try.
