Ok, I need paper that is 3 things:
Cheep
Works with K3 inksets
Off-white/natural color with a texture surface (NOT BRIGHT WHITE!)

Any ideas?

It does not need to be the super duper paper you want for your prints to last hundreds of years, just something in a matte surface that will hold up for a while under glass, Need to print as cheep as possible
thanks

With all the papers I've tried, I've gotten completely hooked on the Ilford Galerie series of papers. Smooth Pearl is by far my favorite, with a finish between a matte and gloss.

Ilford Galerie is great paper.

Arista also makes good paper, not sure who makes it (Arista is Freestyle's brand). I believe it is Epson? Ilford is always quick to point out that they don't sell product to third parties.
