Hi Chris,

I use Hahnemuhle for my best B&W Piezography stuff, and
for work for pay.  It's very nice, but expensive;  I have settled 
on their heavy weight paper.

For paid color work, I send my digital files to a lab to have
photographic (RA4) prints made.

For home and proofing, I use Epson Heavyweight Matte or
and Epson Photo Glossy or Canon's equivalent.
I buy a big batch a a ime, when the local Staples 
run their occasional 50% off sales.  

My printers are an Epson 1280 for Piezography and
Canon S9000 for other stuff.

Cheers,

- Phong
