For entry into the somewhat larger sized prints the semigloss already what makes her. The paper thickness with 251g is good enough. Since nothing warped even when borderless printing. The surface between matte and glossy effect even something noble. Have the paper ordered together with the Epson 1500W to try and am completely satisfied. The price / performance ratio is right and you get a nice first impression of the special effect of the larger prints. When my 20 sheets are printed, I will probably re-order a set. For a comparison with the more expensive fine art papers can be drawn only conditionally, because the surface effect is very subjective. But there are certainly tastes who prefer the many expensive paper semigloss.
