<div dir="ltr"><div>Hello Tom and others, </div><div><br></div><div>I see that the issue of labels for wet collections is as alive as ever. Some of you may recall that I have recently posted a query asking which printers and toners are used in "your" collections. I gathered that similarly to Tom, everybody or almost everybody with an inkjet printer is facing the same problem of having an old model for which parts and toners are being discontinued, with the additional problem of not knowing whether newer models stand up to the quality of the older ones. </div><div><br></div><div>Here in our collections we are currently gearing up to perform an experiment with different labels and substrates, because we have our own decisions to make on this subject. The current plan is to include at least three different solutions (70% ethanol, formalin and at least one other), in triplicate. I'm collecting material to be tested (thermal transfer, inkjet, pigment-print and handwritten labels). Those of you who would like to send labels for testing are invited to contact me and see how this can fit in. At the moment I'm very interested in collecting inkjet labels. </div><div><br></div><div>Obviously, I'll be happy to acknowledge contributions and to share whatever information gained. The other option is to bring together already-existing information and publish that in one useful article, also something that I would be happy to do, either separately or combined with the kind of information review I'm doing for the benefit of our planned experiment.</div><div><br></div><div>Gali </div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jun 20, 2018 at 12:36 PM, Tom Schiøtte <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:tschioette@snm.ku.dk" target="_blank">tschioette@snm.ku.dk</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
