[alt-photo] Re: "Alternative Printing": Terms to define

[Greg Schmitz]

Speaking of labels,  if ink jet printers want to make life easier for 
photo conservators in years to come they might consider mentioning the 
specific printer and the ink set that was used (or at least put a 
notation on the back of the print).  I suspect this will be come a real 
issue for conservators in the near future, if it's not already.
