Also, his latest curves are on his web site and can be downloaded (a very nice gesture given the amount of time he has put into this). He seems to view the negative as almost a throw away since he can print more he doesn't bother with using any kind of archival inks for them. For the inks on paper used for his ink/platinum combination he is using Indelible Inks that can be gotten through www.mandmstudios.com these inks are water proof and are supposed to last 200 years. I'm not sure which printer he is using for this (he runs five printers off his Mac)...I suspect the Epson 7000 given the accuracy of paper feeding and registration that must be required on these prints. - --- "James A.
