Image Stability: Also a Question of Balance General Observations To adequately characterize the expected print-life of a photographic print, all kno

For imaging materials that are sensitive to ozone, one must also define the typical ozone levels that might be encountered in the home display environ

on image quality of most inkjet prints is negligible.2,16 In other words, at 20-25°C and 50% RH, humidity is not considered to be a limiting factor w

Now that we have defined the end-user display environment and the end-user expectations for acceptable loss of image quality, we can describe the spe
