Epson Premium Photo
Old black and white family photos ink and color printer question?
Hi, I have an Epson Color 980 computer printer and I'm duplicating and printing old years 1890 to 1930 pictures so my entire family will have copies. I'm doing this on hp premium plus inkjet Glossy Photo Paper 8 1/2 X 11, 11.5 mil paper. I'm using Inksel cartridges I get for myself at work. Should I worry that the ink or paper will fade in the future? Any suggestions on purchasing the good stuff? Also, my friend wants to buy the best and cheapest but quality printer for large color prints (for people, birds, sunsets etc) for her Dell Computer she got last year. Should she get any specific Epson, Canon or what printer? I went online to look for reviews but it's very confusing. Thank you for any suggestions. Cool Breeze!
If you want to ensure that there is no fading, you may want to consider having them reproduced in a regular photo shop. The photos I printed in an old Epson printer generally faded. The new generation printers claim 'no fading' but that can't be proven until years from now.
Also when printing photos, the ink will cost more than if you have it printed outside.
That's just a suggestion.
As far as choice of computer printer, Epson, Canon and HP are usually tops but I am partial to Canon. Reviews are confusing because diferernt people would have different experiences with even the same printer. That's why any of the top brands are ok. You also have to choose in terms of your needs. There are many printers that offer a lot of features that you may not need but would be paying a premium for.
It's best you use the "compare products' in sites like pcmag.com for the choices you have made to help you decide
