Total Recall SE keepcase cover (1 Viewer)

[Jay Mitchosky]

Anyone find a really good paper to use for printing these covers?

In addition to the Epson paper mentioned above I would also suggest HP's Premium Photo Paper. It's excellent. I had bought some Avery photo paper and it didn't compare to the HP. Blacks looked more dark blue, colors weren't as saturated, and detailed suffered. If anyone tells you there's no difference between papers don't believe them. If you spend the extra money on the HP or Epson stuff you'll be rewarded with higher quality prints (and either way you're using all that ink).
Now that the new covers are ready I just need to get the disk. Not yet arrived in Canada (at least where I am right now).

Thanks for the scans, Matt!
I just printed them out on my company's Tektronix color laser printer, and they came out pretty well. It'll definitely beat that crappy round metal tin that the Total Recall SE was packaged in.

Actually, those who are fanatical about O.A.R., should choose design #1.
This is because that one is closest to the Original Artwork Reproduction.
The actual cover has the LE banners in red, and has them both on the front and the back. It does have the front LE banner on the front, but it is reasonable to assume that this is only because it doesn't fit on the top of the front, due to the tin (normally the LE banners are on the top).

for posting this!

Best paper I've found has been Epson Premium Photo Glossy. At 255gsm this is quite heavy stuff. Colour purity and finish are the best I've ever seen. Well worth the extra money over the standard Epson Photo.

For those who don't have the capability to print these themselves, you can always go to Kinko's (are they nationwide?), tell the person in the computer department what you need to accomplish, and they will probably be glad to help you print it out on the proper paper & printer. Just remember to bring the URL for the hi-res so you don't have to waste your "on-the-clock" computer time to search the HTF for it.
