Note: KODAK Universal Backlit Film / 8mil is not recommended for use with "lightfast" dye inks unlaminated due to premature fading (which is caused by oxidation). If prints are laminated within 4 hours of printing to seal the image from exposure to air, the print lifetime can be extended—depending on the type of overlaminate. "Lightfast" inks include: ENCAD GX, ILFORD ARCHIVA, COLORSPAN ENDURACHROME, HEWLETT-PACKARD dyes, and KODAK PROFESSIONAL LIGHTFAST PLUS inks.
