Greetings all, I am going to print a book with photos and lots of text, on double-sided matte paper. Sending from InDesign to the printer, and printing on Red River Premium Matte 50-lb paper. I know because of the "sandpapery" personality of the surface that facing pages will eventually transfer ink through pressure and rubbing, from a dark picture on one page to the unprinted white paper on the opposite page. One way to minimize this is to use Premier spray lacquer to seal the surface after printing, but this requires mutliple coats. Just now, it occurred to me that in the print dialogue, if I tell the printer I am using a paper that is not "matte photo" but instead Luster or Semi-gloss, will that invoke the clear coating and mean that whatever ink is laid down on the sheets will be sealed afterward by the Auto setting? Doing this would save me an *enormous* amount of time and expense in spraying multiple coats of lacquer on each side of every sheet. And a related question: which paper setting would be closer to the amount of ink normally used by printer on matte paper . . . luster or semi-gloss? Thanks, Bruce
