I love this one. Very creative, made me laugh...

But actually, I do like the term, "Carbon Prints," or even "Carbon 
Ink Prints." Rolls off the tongue easily, is accurate, and sounds 
rather exotic and special (which it is).

I specifically DON'T like the use of the word, "Digital," since they 
are not really, uh, digital. They are printed with ink. They are no 
more digital than a blueprint that comes off a plotter or printer 
connected to a computer. No one says, "Digital Blueprint," do they??
