Conservation Display Rating (CDR)

http://www.aardenburg-imaging.com

Testing Status: 140 Megalux hours total light exposureTesting Is ongoing, next update on approximately JULY 15, 2016

Note: a CDR with narrow range (typically less than 2:1) indicates relatively even overall fading of the image. A widerange indicates faster fading in certain local colors/tones prior to general fading of most colors/tones in the entire image.Compare ratings for different systems directly and/or use the table on page 2 to estimate time (years) on display.

About this Report This report contains light fastness information about a sample test print produced by a specific digital printing system. “System” refers to all hardware, software, and materials used to make the finished print. The hardware, software, material components, and printmaker’s skills contribute to the final image quality and image permanence. The tested sample is made with current or recently discontinued stocks of commercially available products unless otherwise stated. Each sample has been prepared by Aardenburg Imaging & Archives or one of its members in accordance with customary print making practices unless otherwise noted. The sample may also contain additional finishing materials such as overcoats and laminates which are also noted when used. Finally, the sample has been tested under standardized conditions that are defined on the Sample Description page (see page 4). AaI&A makes every effort to ensure but cannot guarantee that the samples are properly identified and documented and that test results are accurate. For this reason, AaI&A also strives to test independently produced sample replicates in order to increase sampling confidence and to provide information on process variability. Please compare the results in this report to replicate test samples when the data become available.

Understanding this Report

Aardenburg Imaging& Archives

Information about the fading characteristics of the product is provided in three ways: 1) You can visually assess the fading. The target images reproduced in this report are digitally reconstructed from the spectrally measured color data rather than scanning or otherwise reproducing the physical print by conventional techniques. This method ensures a colorimetrically accurate representation of the print appearance as the print fades. A calibrated monitor is recommended to experience the best possible reproduction of the test sample appearance. The side-by-side "before and after" presentation of the target images simulates looking at a perfect copy of the unexposed original print along side the same print after light exposure. You can also use Adobe Reader’s full screen mode to cycle through the pages and “animate” the fading. 2) I* Color and tonal accuracy scores are reported. This report includes I* metric scores that compare the color and tonal relationships of the light exposed samples to the color and tonal relationships existing in the original print prior to light exposure. Perfect I* scores of 100% can be approached when no significant fading occurs. Average scores above 90% generally indicate excellent retention of original quality, 80% good, 70% fair, etc., but your conclusions may vary depending on your image quality requirements. I* color rates the retained color accuracy (hue and chroma) while I* tone rates the retained tonal accuracy (lightness and contrast). The score is on a percentile scale where 100% is a perfect match between the comparison image (e.g., “after” light exposure) and the reference image (e.g., “before” any light exposure). 0% I* color means no color accuracy is left. 0% I* tone means essentially no tonality remains and all image information content is lost. Negative I* values have significance as well and contribute to the average I* score when they occur. Negative I* color values mean false color has occurred, for example, when a skin tone turns green or a neutral gray becomes distinctly colorful. Negative I* tone scores mean visual contrast between colors has become inverted (i.e., like the tonal relationships in a photographic film negative). Serious image quality problems must arise before false colors and/or tones appear. For more information on the I* metric, please refer to the AaI&A web site. 3) Color changes are also reported using the classic color difference model, Δ∆E. Note that Δ∆E values lose perceptual scaling significance when they become large (e.g., > 15). Also, the Δ∆E equation does not unambiguously measure changes in image contrast. This limitation is generally not a problem for paints and textiles, but can be a serious oversight when evaluating photographic images. Properly tracking changes in image contrast was a major reason behind the development of the I* metric.

The magnitude and visual appearance of fading depends not only on the chosen printing system but the chosen image as well. In other words, different images are comprised of different colors, and the fading relationships between those colors dictate how the image will look as it fades. The sample print in this test report was made by reproducing the digital image shown on the left. It contains 30 standard colors. 24 of the colors are colorimetrically matched to the Macbeth ColorChecker™ chart viewed under D50 illumination. The remaining six colors supplement the ColorChecker™ array with four additional skin tone colors, one patch for paper white, and another for maximum black. The additional colors also round out the distribution of CIELAB L* (lightness) values in the test target.

Light levels commonly encountered in the real world fluctuate widely throughout indoor print display environments and produce large variations in how long it takes for artwork to acquire light-induced damage. Use this table as a guide to estimate how many “years on display” (denoted in red text) it takes to accumulate an equivalent light exposure dosage. Review the test results to decide which Mega-lux-hour dose has caused fading to your level of concern (e.g., just noticeable, easily noticeable, objectionable, etc.). Then choose the “Light Exposure” description that best represents how your print is likely to be displayed. You may want to obtain a lux meter and make some measurements in your own display environment!

Note that as the years of display time increase, light-induced fading can be eclipsed by other serious aging mechanisms such as fading and/or staining caused by heat, humidity, and air pollutants. Mould damage can also occur at high humidity. Even when colorants re-main water fast, direct contact with liquids may result in physical deformation and staining of the substrate. Also, temperature and espe-cially strong seasonal humidity fluctuations can cause physical cracks and/or flaking, etc., over time. Handling damage such as scratching, abrasion, tears and creases, and catastrophic damage by smoke, fire, flood, etc., also destroy print quality over time. Thus, as illumination levels are reduced other forms of print degradation take on greater probability of occurrence.

(1) Eastman Kodak cited this exposure condition with a 90% confidence limit as a rationale for estimating print fading times of traditional col-or photo materials in typical home display environments. However, for light fading claims regarding its line of pigment-based inkjet printers, Kodak adopted the higher level of 450lux/12 hours per day which is also used by Wilhelm Imaging Research, Inc. (See below).

(2) Wilhelm Imaging Research (WIR) standardized its light fastness ratings on 450 lux for 12 hours per day in order to estimate the years on display necessary to reach “easily noticeable” fading. This average daily light exposure dosage, at an assumed 75˚F/60%RH temperature and humidity level, has become a de facto industry standard for most industry-sponsored predictive “years of life” light fading estimates in the absence of a published International Standards Organization (ISO) test standard. The table above readily shows how much error occurs in such “print lifetime” predictions as actual real world light levels for prints on display routinely deviate above and below the assumed 450 lux intensity value.
