A different presentation

Polar Pearl metallic definitely represents another way to present images. It works well with some images, but not so well with others. It takes some experimentation to bring out the paper's quality. I have printed using the Epson 1400 and the profile for Ultra Premium Photo Paper Glossy (UPGP) is a good color/grayscale match.
