| dc.description.abstract | As printing technology advances, new markets and applications
are developing, requiring improved document longevity and
robustness. With more documents being printed digitally, it is
important to understand how these documents fare in terms of
permanence in various stages of their life cycle, and how they
compare to conventionally printed offset documents. This
month’s research monograph, a literature review entitled
Permanence of Toner on Paper—Based on the Life Cycle of
Documents (PICRM-2006-05), by Franziska Frey, RIT School of
Print Media professor, and graduate students Henrik Holm
Christensen and Nicholas DiSantis, aims to understand the life
expectancy of four categories of products printed with digital
processes.
These four categories are:
Marketing and promotional materials,
Transactional and business communications,
Direct mail, and
On-demand color books. | en_US |
