[Nhcoll-l] Alcohol safe InkJet printers

[Simon Moore]

Thanks for this Tom,

When I was over in 2014 I was advised that your museum used Canon Lucia Pixma 9 cartridges or have these been ‘moved on’?

Please keep me apprised everyone, of any new advances in ink technology for alcohol-preserved material so that I can keep my records updated.

Many thanks.
With all good wishes, Simon.
