| Feature | Performance | Additional Comments |
| Ink drying time | Immediate (less than 30 seconds) | Ink is dry to the touch after printing. However, it takes 24 hours before it cures and becomes durable. |
| Resistance to water | Good | Bleeding does not occur with incidental water contact. However, encapsulated lamination is recommended in wet conditions. |
| Gas-fastness | Excellent with EPSON Archival and UltraChrome Ink; poor with dye-based ink. | With regard to dye-based images, lamination or framing under glass greatly increases gas-fastness and the life of the print. |
| Handling requirements | Use care | Handle with care to avoid scratching and kinking. |
| Lamination feasibility | Hot or cold lamination | Lamination extends the life of the print and increases durability. |
