Why photo paper needs to be stored carefully?

Because its production process determines that we have to save it carefully.

1. The basis of the paper base is a fiber paper base that meets a top quality standard. The base of the photo paper for printer must be white in color, uniform in texture, and not easily deformed. Paper bases have different thickness standards.

2. Barium oxide layer. A thin layer of barium oxide is added on the base of the photo paper for inkjet printers to fill in the small defects of the base of the photo paper and increase the whiteness of the photo paper.

3. For the photo printer paper with resin layer, a polyethylene resin layer is added on the barium oxide layer to prevent chemical liquid from entering the paper base when the photo paper is washed. The photographic paper without polyethylene resin layer is called paper-based photographic paper, and the photographic paper with polyethylene resin layer is called plastic-coated photographic paper.

4. Photosensitive emulsion layer.

How to store photo paper after printing?

1.After you have finished printing, wait until the paper is completely fused with the ink or toner. Apply protective film to photos. Paper photos need to be covered with plastic wrap to protect the photos. After the photo is filmed, it will be in shape, and the paper will be isolated, so that the hand will not directly touch the paper, and the photo will not be wrinkled and dirty.

2.Do not touch the photo with dirty hands. When looking at the photos, wash your hands clean, do not touch the photos with dirty hands, the sweat and oil stains on your hands will turn the photos yellow and black. Even if there is a layer of protective film, it will damage the photo.

3.Keep in a dry location. Paper things are the most afraid of moisture. When photos are not usually viewed, do not put them in a damp place, otherwise the photos will be damp and faded, so put the photos in a dry place.
