Until know have kept with Canon own papers, typically Pro II and Platinum range. Good results, but paper is relatively expensive.

So thought I would try some Ilford Galerie Smooth Pearl, good reputation/reports.
My monitor is calibrated (Spyder Pro) and to date the Canon paper prints have been very close.
Downloaded the Ilford profiles and tried a few prints, immediately noticed that they appeared darker, and the whites had a green cast. Re-calibrated etc... same result. Checked with some canon paper, no issues.

Have since trawled the net and tried a suggestion of using canon own profiles SG1. with the Ilford paper.
Great result so far, the whites are white, and the brightness matches the screen as well.

A result, thought I'd share in case anyone else had similar issue.

Regards Neil
 
Thanks for sharing Neil, am going to get some of this paper and you just might have saved me some very expensive ink:clap:
