RE: [Digital BW] A bit OT. Mounting Prints - effect of heat on inkjet print - any recommended books

2005-05-25 by Paul Roark

Roy,

I have measured test strips of MIS B&W inks before and after dry mounting
and found no significant differences.  I have the press set to 180 and use
Seal Archival mount.  I leave the prints in the press for 1 minute, but
usually have to do more than one press per print for large prints.  I do not
press matte paper -- only sprayed Premium Semimatte.
