Subject: Permanence of Indigo digital prints
I have been asked to participate in a fine art publishing project that will be printed on an Indigo digital printing press, and have been unable to find any data on permanence. The image quality is astounding, which is why the publisher bought the press. When I examined a printed sheet there were no "dots" visible, even under low magnification. The manufacturer's web site <URL:http://www.indigonet.com/> identifies the "electroink" as a semi-liquid pigment ink. A search of the Cons DistList archive and the Net turned up some general info on NIP technology, including calls for entries to the Canadian and British conferences in October. Is any current research available on the Indigo specifically, or is anyone preparing a conference paper that includes it?
