Digital BW, The Print

Yes, I have used various decoupage mediums with Gen4 inks. It all
depends on the paper. On Red River Watercolor text there are no
problems with bleeding or brush marks. On EAM, it is a mess unless you
spray with Krylon first which kinda defeats the point...and then it
still doesn't look so hot. I have tried only a couple of mediums. I do
use decoupage medium sometimes to adhere prints to things....works
good with all papers. Some items I've had sitting around inside and on
my screened porch for a couple of years and they look fine. (This
isn't high art, mind you  : )  )  I just like to play with stuff.

Also, there is a collage artist who has developed a technique for
inkjet printing on Great White paper then coating either the print or
a receiving paper with Golden Gel medium and then making a transfer.
She does the same by printing on Apollo tranparencies and using them
for transfers to fabric or paper. There is a Yahoo Group called Inkjet
Transfer if anyone is interested. Very interesting artisitic effects.
I've tried it but am still working on techique...it's one of those
things that you have to fiddle with......and we *do* know about
fiddlin' don't we? <g>
