I'm not sure what is different in the formulation of a b&w inkjet paper, but the results are great. For an everyday paper, you might try Epson Premium Luster. It's pretty cheap in a 250 sheet box and isn't that bad.

I dislike matte finish paper, and also the high gloss RC paper look. I've a bunch of stuff to print out by Christmas. Looking for input on a general purpose (NOT exhibition weight or cost) type of paper, that looks like air dried glossy fiber papers from the wet darkroom days. Any ideas?
