In its short history, Innova has managed to have confusing and sometimes contradictory product names between their own site and those of their distributors. Below is a list of papers culled from their latest print sample book and their website. I'm told that these are the official names as of April 2007 and that Innova is asking dealers to update their product listings accordingly.

FibaPrint Warmtone Gloss 300gsm; No OBAs; Alpha Cellulose base

I finally did a change to PK and have just begun setting up for the Semi-Matte and the UltraSmooth Gloss.
These paper are going to be big winners I think, the best photo surfaces yet. Innova is being remarkably responsive to user feedback for product development.

Great, thanks for the list! I have also felt that some of the paper names have been confusing and inconsistent.

Would it be possible for you to clarify which black inks are supposed to be used with which papers, esp. in the FibaPrint class? My understanding is that most of them are to be used with Photo Black (PK) but perhaps the 4th one (FibaPrint White Matte 280gsm) is supposed to be used with Matte Black (MK). Is this true?

For heavy pigment-load sets like the Cone inks, you can print on the Fine Art and Photo ranges.
For the Epson and HP inks its MK for the Canvas, Fine Art and Photo ranges and PK for the FibaPrint lineup.
The White Matte I can't say 100% because I haven't tried it, but I've got a meeting with Innova next week. I 'll ask them.
