10.1 Technical Applications

In addition to the media described in this guide, Xerox offers a standard range of uncoated and coated opaque white

papers, tracing papers and polyester drafting film for CAD and certain GIS applications. Please ask your Xerox

supplies sales representative.

Dye inks are perfectly adequate for most working CAD drawings. Pigment inks should be used for archive drawings

or maps, or any print where a high degree of image durability is required.

10.2 Archive Stability

Definition of Archive Stability

The potential for the collective attributes of a print, which include the physical and chemical properties of the inks

and media with which it was generated, to resist changes from their initial state during an indefinite period of storage

within a controlled environment.

For prints generated within the approved specification for materials and conditions using Xerox 8142/8160 printer

with pigment inks, image legibility, or print life, will be sustained for the normal observer, with regard to the

following degrees of image permanence and durability afforded by the related conditions of referral:

• High Image Permanence and Durability – Print Life of at least 100 years: Requires Low Frequency and

Duration of Referral, or equivalent combinations, not to exceed 60 minutes of exposure per year.

• Medium Image Permanence and Durability – Print Life of at least 50 years: Requires Ordinary Frequency and

Duration of Referral, or equivalent combinations, not to exceed 12 hours of exposure per year.

• Low Image Permanence and Durability – Print Life of at least 20 years: Requires High Frequency and

Duration of Referral, or equivalent combinations, not to exceed 208 hours of exposure per year.

NOTE: This statement excludes prints archived in improperly controlled environments, prints damaged in any manner

during referral, regardless of circumstance, and prints subject to continuous referral. It remains contingent

on printer component design and supplies formulations, which are subject to change at the discretion of Xerox.
