The ink actually rubs off?

I've not heard of this!

Hello Jerry -

   I am using the standard Epson inks and their brand
paper. The photos look great. My intentions were to
sell photos made from the 2200 but not if they're so
fragile. The morning after I made a few prints, the
ink on one of them rubbed off with my thumb (some
pressure was applied) and onto the border of the
print. I was hoping to hear that there was some kind
of spray I could apply to the surface of the print. Or
perhaps switch to a different kind of paper.
