Handling and storing prints and transparencies

The image stability of thermal prints depends on factors such as

temperature, relative humidity, and exposure to light or to biological or

chemical contaminates. Using XtraLife ribbon increases print shelf life.

Your thermal images will last a long time if you handle and store them as

described below.

• Handle prints as little as possible. When handling prints, make sure

your hands are clean and free of food, oil, and grease. Wear clean

gloves when possible, and hold prints by the edges.

• Store thermal prints and transparencies in a cool, dry environment

free of chemical contamination.

• The lower the storage temperature, the better. Avoid temperatures

higher than 72°F (25°C) for extended periods.

• A relative humidity between 30% and 50% is ideal.

• Avoid exposure to high-intensity light sources, particularly ﬂuorescent

light and sunlight, which are rich in ultraviolet radiation.

• Avoid exposure to vinyl items (those made of polyvinyl chloride [PVC])

or any plastic which contains plasticizer. These items usually have a

distinct “plastic” odor. If you use transparency sleeves, make sure that

they are not PVC-based.
