Another step toward making a custom made archival ink

Another step toward making a custom made archival ink

2008-12-15 by mantinieri

Upon inquiring with the Image Specialists support team, I found that
they carry a dispersion concentrate in water of carbon pigments used
to make their IS1082 ink. We ordered a sample to test a custom made
ink by diluting the dispersion with an archival base. 
Furthermore, we think to customize the pigment load for our printers
and paper. In fact, the uncoated papers usually can take an ink load
larger than 100%.

I offered to post their reply to my mail, but they kindly asked not to
be advertised through the newsgroup. Contact me off line if you need
more info.
