GLOSSARY

Chemically stable, to ensure optimum longevity. A printing process that sprays liquid inks onto a paper stock in very fine droplets. Pigment particles literally embed themselves into the paper stock making them water resistant, then ensuring their archival superiority over dye-based ink sets which are soluble. A toner that uses selenium to replace the silver in the photographic print. The toner greatly improves the life of the print as well as the richness of the shadow detail. A toner that uses sodium sulfide to replace the silver in the photographic print. This toner changes the neutral black and white to a warm brown color and enhances the life of the print. A black and white print process using photographic paper, which is paper coated with an emulsion of light-sensitive silver salts. Optimum archival properties are achieved when processed, handled and stored correctly.
