I can't go along with that. I've never seen a case of restricting trade in

If you read some of the postings on the DigitalBW list, you will find that
Epson US was advised by a group of US color experts (Andrew Rodney and
others) that the CD and Gray Balancer should not be included with the
printer. They apparently didn't like them.

What on Earth makes a color expert an authority on whether a printer
should be able to print on a CD?

Sounds like the art market has learned that inkjet prints fade just as
archival inkjet printers are becoming mainstream.

Hi Tom,
Can you explain a bit more on what is being asked for? What do you mean by
fiber? What do you mean by digital fiber? Are ink jet prints
acceptable if they are done on the right paper? If not, what type of
printer is acceptable?
Thanks,
Stephen

I wonder the same thing, having just purchased this wiz-bang Epson 2200
printer, supposedly with reported longevity rivaling Lightjet prints. I
have a hard time with the idea that ink-jets are being condemned in
general. I suppose they just want us to call them giclee's.

Fair enough, but archival fiber-only papers were not designed to be used
with inkjet inks, were they? Rarely can you have everything in life!

I recall the preliminary ads said that this printer had the ability to print

Are you saying that the Epson Matte Heavyweight paper, which is what they
claim has the greatest longevity, isn't coated?

We have several local digital labs here providing everything from color
laser prints to digitally produced silver based prints to prints
produced with archival inks and papers (giclee). All of these produce
fairly permanent results, and in fact some and even better than normal

In wet darkroom, Fibre or fiber refers to papers which do not use
polymers or resin coatings, such as the RC papers. Fiber papers are
made of paper/rag pulp and then coated with silver halide laden
emulsions, and that's it. Thiosulfates can ruin the permanence of a
fibre paper image too, so
It depends where you live.
The European version comes with CD printing ability (both via some
hardware device and software) and a gray balancer designed for making
monochrome prints. For some odd reason Epson has decided that North
Americans have no use for these things.

That's potentially very unfortunate, too. Sounds like I am going to
have to provide some type of written warranty if I distribute inkjet
prints as collectibles. Up to now, I use an archival process for
reproducing anything I sell (graphic art more than photos) or I have
sold chemical (wet
