To ensure your precious memories stay with you I only use genuine Epson Ultrachrome K3 inks and Epson paper for all photographs I print. Used in this way Epson state the Ultrachrome K3 ink has improved print permanence characteristics that provide lightfastness ratings of up to 108 years for color and over 200 years for black and white under rigorous industry accepted display conditions*.
*Print permanence ratings based on accelerated testing of prints on specialty media, displayed indoors, under glass. For maximum print life, display all prints under glass or lamination or properly store them. Visit www.wilhelm-research.com for the latest information
