I just received a FEDEX package of sample prints today from HP and all I can say is WOW. Amazing blacks and I am floored. Beautiful prints!

I'm so happy for you, and for me. Please read my topic I'm in the middle of formatting.

Can you tell on what paper they print it?

The blacks are very strong, very neutral, very lightfast, and ease of printing a joy on the Z series.
Yet there were no changes to the black inks so the Z3100 will do just as well in that respect as a Z3200.
It's obvious if you don't already have a Z3100, then a good choice and obvious one is the 3200 as it has the blacks you see , and the reds are improved.

It depends on the image you are ordering. I picked these.

Thanks Peter.

By naming the photographs, you give the impression that I (we) can see them. True? Where? It's nice to have an idea what kind of picture goes well with that kind of paper.
