Comments about Canon Fine Art Paper Museum Etching (176 gsm, 13 x 19", Super B, 20 Sheets):
Great results with my Pixma Pro 9500 mark II printer. Sharp, crisp details on the subtle textured paper.
The only complaint is I could not print a borderless print. Printer imposed margins at the top & bottom (sides also when I scaled the image to fit). However, this produces a nice "matted" appearance.
Suggestions for optimum results: make sure your monitor is properly color calibrated. Also, make sure you adjust paper in the "print" dialog box.

Comments about Canon Fine Art Paper Museum Etching (176 gsm, 13 x 19", Super B, 20 Sheets):
This is a fantastic paper for the Canon Pro9500 Mark II pigment printer and it is thick enough that it doesn't buckle or bend easily and has a nice "watercolor paper" texture that's not to extreme but noticalbe upon close inspection.
I print "watercolor style" paintings with birght colors and this paper is great for my needs - nice bright colors and virtually no visible dot pattern on the highest quality setting.
Tip: When printing, the "Museum Etching" setting creates very wide borders (over 1 inch) so I use the "matte paper" setting which allows me to print within 1/4" of the edge and the prints still look great.

Comments about Canon Fine Art Paper Museum Etching (176 gsm, 13 x 19", Super B, 20 Sheets):
I am a professional photographer and really like the depth of color I can get from Museum Etching paper. Unfortunately, twice when I have ordered from other companies, the paper has been dropped somewhere along the line and the edge was destructive to my printing and printer. I went without compensation. So I was reluctant to order the paper again on line but can't find it anywhere in our area. B & H d[...] I have been able to print wonderful pictures on my Canon 9000 Pro Mark II. The ink soaks into the Museum Paper and deepens the colors to perfection without altering the photo.

I use this paper to most of my HDR landscape images, my intimate nature scenes, and patterns in nature. The texture of this paper gives it
a quality for fine art printmaking that most closely approximates the look that Renaissance
artists achievied by painting on canvas, yielding
an increase in microcontrast which which renders
a perceived increase in sharpness and image quality.
