Print durability has long been a hallmark of excellence when it comes to Epson Stylus Photo printers. Certainly, this hallmark carries on with the Stylus Photo R1900.
On Epson Premium Glossy Photo Paper, photographs printed using genuine Epson UltraChrome HiGloss2 ink will last for up to 200* years before any fading becomes noticeable. Add to this the high levels of smudge and waterresistance resulting from the resin coating of each pigment particle in the ink, and you have prints that last a lifetime.
