Briefly,

Evercolor process uses very high res scans, then makes continuous tone
separation negatives (much like old dye transfer process) of the size of
the final print.  To quote the creator: "The first (yellow) CMYK pigment
sheet is independently laminated to a special polyester base, contact
exposed with the appropriate film negative and processed.  The procedure
is repeated for each of the remaining pigments.

"We guarantee that EverColor print won't fade or discolor for centuries
under the typical lighting used in a home, business, museum or gallery
environment."

800-533-5050 for sample print.

And if you think Leicas are expensive.....
