How does paper selection affect color?

Ink doesn't create its color the way paint does. Paint is opaque. Light hits the surface of the paint film, the wavelengths of light that don't correspond to the color your thing is are absorbed. Ink that isn't black is transparent. Really it is. Light passes through it and strikes the paper surface. The paper absorbs certain wavelengths of light. Then the light passes back through the ink film where the wavelengths not needed for the color of ink are absorbed. A cream-color paper will absorb different wavelengths than a blue-white paper.
