Digital BW, The Print

Yes, they will be sold and, as such, should be archival.

But what are these other materials and, when you say they're not
archival, how 'unarchival' are they?

I'm not sure how they would look on silk, but I suppose there is only
one way to find out.  Can you print on silk with a R2400 or would I
need to send it out?

I'm not locked in on size - what I need is a size that looks good. 
The images I have will look fantastic printed big.

Regards
Gareth
