Re: Archival Photography

Jeff:
If you like the results your are getting why not coat the print with an
archival liquid laminate. There are several on the market. Millennium
XEú being very popular with larger production houses. 

The tests I have done with their older product and Epson OEM inks have
proven to hold up very well. I have prints printed on my Stylus Color
800 that are now over two years old and the images are as good today as
when printed. These images have been under fluorescent lights for 8
hours a day for 5 days a week. Images were printed on an off the shelf
watercolor paper. No special treatment for inkjet printing.
