Q: 7. WHAT IS THE ARCHIVAL RATING ON HOT PRESS BRIGHT?

A: My understanding is that the pigments used in Hot Press Bright and the paper itself are rated in excess of 200 years, but the issue is always modified by how the print will be displayed. There is some evidence that some fading will occur at certain light levels after about 50-60 years if exhibited in constant light over time. Also, there may be some differences in archival properties depending on characteristics of the print, with black and white images being having some differences with color prints, even when printed on Epson Hot Press Bright with Epson pigments. The bottom line is that prints are likely to outlast the print-maker, but after that, who knows. Probably too much is made over these issues now with digital images, since the file can be preserved and a reprint made should an image fade. No other art has ever had this possibility attached to it before. Many of Jackson Pollock's best paintings, for example, have already exhibited significant fading over time and restoration.
