I ended up doing something similar to what Paul is doing: printing only on the papers that are suitable for Photo Black. Prior to that, for most purposes, I've preferred Matte papers at photo labs. With my Epson (R2880), - I am using either pearl/luster or, occasionally glossy (when needed or when the right size is not reasonably available in pearl/luster, - such as 4"x6")

I solved that problem by printing on Epson's best paper almost all the time (premium luster). But I would use photo black all the time.

If you don't want to keep going back and forth between photo black and matte black on the R2400 (or the like) is it less harmful to print something on matte paper with the photo black cartridge in or glossy paper with the matte black in?

The r2400 knows which and doesn't offer a paper setting for the other, but I got not terrible results with the matte black in and printing a little print on 4 x 6 Epson glossy and the setting on inkjet photo paper setting.

what say ya?
