For papers:

Ilford Smooth Pearl
Crane Museo Silver Rag for FB like prints
Kodak Professional Lustre - not the normal crap Kodak inkjet paper
Epson Enhanced Matte

Be sure to download the color profiles with these papers for optimal results.

It's not in the US, but if anyone has used the new Permajet Classic Fibre 
Warmtone please let me know -

Congrats on the new printer, the new K3 inks are excellent.
