New ChromaLife 100 Canon Printer Inkset

Mark Goldstein writes "Some exciting news today for everyone who loves the speed of Canon printers, but hates the fact that they don't have archival-quality inksets. PhotographyBLOG reader Phil Aynsley has sent me a translated version of a page from Canon Japan's website, which talks about a new ChromaLife 100 inkset using BCI-7 dye-inks, with promises of 30 years light-proofness under glass and 10 years antigas fading when used with Canon's "genuine photograph paper". Let's hope it leaves Japan and reaches the rest of the world soon. " The archival issue of printing is a big one for people thinking long term - this would definitely be cool.

    In Portugal (such a good country according to my pet turtle, Mozart) we don't make printers.

    We don't really make anything good, but it's such a good country. The food is good. Girls are pretty. No nuclear bombs. No separatist groups. Nice weather.

    We make, or at least used to make, really bad motorcycles.

    It would be so cool if we were an Empire Again and could bitch people around. Oh well.

    In Portugal we speak Portuguese.
