Protecting Your Prints
To achieve maximum print life, follow these guidelines. Atmospheric
contaminants, as much as light, play a role in image fade. Protection
from the elements
will make your prints last longer.
* Display prints under glass or plastic and away from direct light.
* Spray coatings are also great for protection against atmospheric pollutants
* Keep prints away from humid conditions
* Allow your prints to dry for 24 hours before framing, mounting, spraying, or book production
Color Management Hints
You can affect your image colors via your print software or your printer
driver software. In general, image software like Photoshop will have
a greater effect over color, saturation and contrast than the printer
software. However, using printer drivers to change color works well when
smaller adjustments are needed. |
