Re: Silver Rag Yellowing

2012-08-23 by Ben Schneider

I am wondering if it has to do with optical brighteners which are added to some papers.  I am moving away from Epson Exhibition paper for this reason.  In test it yellows very quickly.

After making color digital ink prints for twenty years, it seems like we haven't gotten far from the lasting ability of Fuji Crystal Archive darkroom paper.  For Exhibition paper it is a similar forty years.  And the cost; up over three times!

I am looking into a better semi-gloss fiber based paper.  ANY SUGGESTIONS?
