Coincidently a friend just asked me the same question.  Here's my reply ...
 
The pen is a Pilot Drawing Pen - DR Pigment Ink in Black size 02 (other
thicknesses are available) -

Who knows how good or permanent it is - but it works well on glossy papers.
I bought it a my local stationery store.  I much prefer the more subtle
pencil on matte paper - but pencil is no good on glossy.  I did once try a
lighter grey pen but it looked horrid, not matching the tone of the print
ink and paper.
 
I sign on the white border just under the print - bottom r.h. corner.

Do you guys typically sign in ink or pencil? If in ink, what type of
pen or ink do you use?
