Ink Jet ink
For exhibit purposes we've scanned original photographs and printed them
using a good quality ink jet printer. After only a few weeks on exhibit the
pictures had noticeably faded.
I understand the ink jet ink is not very stable. I could use a laser
printer, but many of the exhibit items are in color. I used glossy photo
paper designed for use in ink jet printers.
Do any of you have a suggestion on how to make the exhibit images last
longer? I am told that a color photocopy of the printout would probably
last longer. Any comment?
Thanks for your input.
