Tips For Making Printed Images Last Longer

Do you print a lot of images? Whether you use inkjet printers or rely on some other technology (even old fashioned photo prints) you need to know how to go about printing them and taking care of them properly.

Whether you are printing with an inkjet photo printer, an expensive dye sub printer, a colour laser or making photo prints optically, here are some things you should keep in mind when either handling prints or making prints.

Tips For Storing Printed Images

The easiest places to store your pictures aren't always the best. For example, basements and attics are often damp and the temperature can vary widely. No matter how you made your images, you should store them in a well-ventilated place that doesn't vary a lot in temperature. A cool, dry place is best.

Light can fade images. If you frame your pictures, you may want to be careful not to hang them directly in the sunlight. If you can't avoid that, you may consider using anti-ultraviolet glass. Always avoid actually touching the surface of the print itself when you can.

Tips For Printing With Photo Paper

If you are using a computer printer, use a paper recommended by the printer manufacturer. There are sometimes aspects that can affect the print quality that are more important than the sheer quality of the print itself. If, for example, ink balls up on the paper and makes your images to look spotty, use a different type of paper or adjust the printer speed. It is less likely to happen when you use paper recommended by the manufacturer of the printer.

You will have to let your prints dry for at least an hour before you try to stack them or even put glassine paper on top of them. If your prints will come in contact with anything else, such as glass or photo album pages, give them 24 hours to dry.

Some Tips For Printing With Glossy Photo Paper

Glossy photos have great appeal. The colours look more vibrant and the details look slightly sharper. The downside is that it can cause glare with intense light sources, however. Be aware that glossy paper is more likely to attract and show dust and fingerprints and plan accordingly.

Some Tips For Printing With Matt Photo Paper

Matte prints do not reflect light as much and are easier to view. However, be aware that they will give the appearance of less detail and less vibrant colours.
