The digital print industry is working toward the goal of adopting improved test methods for image permanence. As part of this effort, new test methods are being designed to enhance test repeatability and reproducibility between laboratories. This study focused on the impact of dry time on the performance of inkjet print samples in Xenon, ozone, and humidity fastness experiments. The data collected in this study is useful for determining appropriate dry times for image permanence tests involving inkjet print samples. This research is part of ongoing work contributing to the development of standardized test methods for image permanence.
