As a US photographer, I have been ordering the Epson Kozo from Amazon UK for the last couple years. Epson Kozo is my absolutely favorite paper, with its high DMax, brilliant colors. and scratch resistance, it behaves more like a glossy baryta than other matt paper, let alone other kozo paper from other vendors.

I have a couple projects in the next few months that I need to make 60-80 24" prints. So I was going to order 10 rolls, and to my surprise, it appears that the paper has been discontinued.

I am really devastated by this. I have just perfecting wet-mounting Kozo print on traditional rice paper, to really show off its translucent quality, and now.... unless somehow there remaining rolls available for affordable prices, I must look for lesser alternatives.

I hope Epson reconsiders the decision. I cannot be the only photographer / artist who is missing this paper?

This is one of the sample images I am testing the wet mounting on.
