Re: [Digital BW] Re: Paul: Black ink Question

2003-02-05 by Julian Thomas

I'm not Paul, but I started using this paper after discussions with the guy
who runs Lincoln inks. He makes some great colour dyes. He was very
concerned with longevity and recommended the Ilford paper. Make sure you get
the right version - 'classic' - as the others are instant dry papers with
less archivability. Looking at the data on his site the basic archivability
of the paper is better that Epson with his dyes - so I've no UC specific
data but the indications are that it will be in the same ballpark as the
Epson i.e. 40 years, which is enough for me.
