This International Standard describes test equipment and test procedures for determining the colour stability of<\/p>\n
photographic colour images when subjected to outdoor conditions. It does not specify limits of acceptability or<\/p>\n
failure criteria. Instead, it provides means for measuring image changes that take place during the aging of pictorial<\/p>\n
photographic images and indicates the critical image-change parameters that should be reported. Users of this<\/p>\n
International Standard should determine which test end-points best simulate the intended display application.<\/p>\n
This International Standard is applicable to pictorial images made with digital printing media, for example:<\/p>\n
\u2014 prints on coated papers, coated and uncoated clear and opaque films, vinyl, polyester, synthetic papers<\/p>\n
and other plastic substrates, laminated and not laminated;<\/p>\n
\u2014 dye-based and pigment-based inkjet prints with aqueous, solvent, phase-change, or UV curing inks;<\/p>\n
\u2014 thermal dye and mass transfer;<\/p>\n
\u2014 dye sublimation prints;<\/p>\n
\u2014 digitally-printed dye-diffusion-transfer prints;<\/p>\n
\u2014 liquid- and dry-toner xerographic prints;<\/p>\n
\u2014 liquid toner electrostatic prints;<\/p>\n
\u2014 digitally printed images made with traditional chromogenic and silver dye-bleach photographic materials;<\/p>\n
\u2014 colour direct thermal prints.<\/p>\n
In these digital printing processes, the ink laydown is controlled by means of digital pixel information, and all<\/p>\n
of the settings and controls of the printing system can be documented and repeated. In contrast, for many<\/p>\n
analogue printing systems, the control over the ink film thickness can be subject to manual adjustment. Window<\/p>\n
graphics on the outside of windows are covered by this International Standard. Window graphics on the inside<\/p>\n
of windows, for which sunlight is filtered by a layer of glass, will be covered by ISO 18937.<\/p>\n
This International Standard does not include test procedures for physical stability of images, supports or<\/p>\n
binder materials. However, it is recognized that in some instances physical degradation such as support<\/p>\n
embrittlement, image layer cracking, or delamination of an image layer from its support, rather than image<\/p>\n
stability, will determine the useful life of a print material.<\/p>\n
NOTE Image print stability results determined for one printer model, ink set, printing mode, print resolution and<\/p>\n
media combination are not applicable to image prints produced through another printer model, ink set, printing mode, print<\/p>\n
resolution and media combination, even if the ink jet cartridges and\/or media used in testing are the same.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
