Hello everybody, again,
I would like to have as many responses to this question as possible.
Could you all tell me, what are your experiences (if you have them) with the
following inks:
I take for example in consideration:
Gamut, continious tone (no banding), blocking of print heads, photographic
output,etc.etc.etc.
Please tell me as much what you know about them,
I would be very gratefull!
Wide Spectrum Inks are dye-based inks

Cibachrome printing,( for the one9s who liked those kind of prints, like me)

Fotonic inks use unique, specially developed dyes to increase this figure to
an estimated 25-30 years useable life. Fotonic
(I have seen some files from myself printed and those were great!)

They are a hybrid dye based-pigmented ink which has an extremely high degree
of UV resistance and high water resistance. The estimated archival life will
exceed the Epson inks by many times when used with archival paper
They have been tested by Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) and rated
to last 49 years under display conditions.
