Title: How about the lightfastness of the fiber papers?
Post by: christiaan on March 25, 2008, 05:51:47 am

How about the lightfastness of the Epson Exhibition Fiber Paper or other 'baryta' papers such as Hahnemuhle, Innova, Harman, Ilford?
Are these papers already tested by Wilhelm Imaging Research?

You can test for humidity , ozone dgradation etc but lightfastness must imply inks on the media.

I thought I saw some figures on the new papers on WIR site, http://www.wilhelm-research.com/ (http://www.wilhelm-research.com/)

If you visit Wilhelm's website (www.wilhelm-research.com) you will see that Exhibition Fiber is under test, Harman has a press release saying that Wilhelm is to test their papers, but there is nothing I've seen there about the new Ilford and Hahn papers.
