Bruce, I have 'Pilot' gold & silver fine point metallic paint markers that
I've used for years on several different Epson photo paper with no ill
effects. They dry within a few seconds.
I know of pencils being used but the metallic paint markers were recommended
by a pro I know.

Subject: OT Q: pen for signing on inkjet paper?
Advice solicited: I want to sign a print I'm selling, discretely on
the front below the image (ie in the white border). So I need a grey
or silver fine-point pen that will write indelibly on Epson Satin
Photographic 240 GSM inkjet paper.
I bought a silver Pilot Super Color Extra Fine pen yesterday and
tested on some scraps, but even after 18 hours of drying it easily
smears. I really like the look of it -- not too contrasty and bold
like a black pen would be.
Would some pencil work? I'm sure a Sharpie would work for the
indelible part, but they have too fat a tip, and I don't think grey is
available.
Seems such a simple thing: sign a print. Sigh.
What do you do?
