FUJIFILM PRODUCT INFORMATION BULLETIN FUJICOLOR CRYSTAL ARCHIVE PAPER SUPREME <NEW>
If exposed paper remains unprocessed for extended
periods of time under normal room conditions or is
subjected to high temperature and/or high humidity,
changes in the color balance and other properties
may occur.
The time between exposure and development
should be fixed in order to obtain consistent quality.
Avoid waiting until the next day to develop the
exposed paper. Rather than holding the paper for
processing the next day, initiate processing as soon
as possible.
4. PROCESSING
This paper is designed for use with FUJICOLOR
Paper Process CP-40FA, CP-43FA, CP-47L, CP-48S,
and CP-49E, or RA-4 type processes.

POST-PROCESSING PAPER (PRINT)
HANDLING/STORAGE
Since prints are usually used for the long-term
recording of images, as much effort as possible is
made to use materials that exhibit the least amount of
change over time, but the effects of light, heat, oxygen
in the air, contaminating gases, humidity and mold
cannot be completely avoided. It is possible, however,
to minimize the change in the photographic image or
base material by maintaining the appropriate storage
conditions for prints, such as those used by museums
and art galleries. Temperature and humidity control is
the most important key to minimizing the change that
occurs in prints. Prints stored in the dark under the
following conditions may be expected to show almost
no change over time.

Notes on Print Storage
1
Prints should be inserted into albums, mounted, or
placed into a bag (plastic*) for photographic prints
before being stored.
*
Made of polyester, polystyrene, polyethylene, or
polypropylene plastic, etc.
2
Even during normal storage, it is recommended that
prints be stored at a place as free as possible from
hot and humid conditions, and away from direct
sunlight and other strong light or from direct
illumination. The following are examples of
undesirable storage conditions.
Storage in a room closet facing a wall exposed to
cold outside air (which may cause
condensation).
Storage in a place near the ceiling, such as an
attic, the top of a closet or cupboard (where high
temperatures may occur).
3
Storing prints with their front surfaces facing each
other may result in unexpected problems. For this
reason, prints should be stored with their front
surfaces facing away from each other. If the
adjacent print placement is unavoidable, it is
necessary to keep the surfaces separated by, for
example, the use of interleaving sheets of paper.
6. LIGHT SOURCES FOR VIEWING
When inspecting finished color prints, it is essential
that an illumination source be used that has superior
spectral characteristics, adequately high color
temperature and sufficient brightness. This is because
results can appear different, depending on light quality.
For precise results, prints should be examined under
the conditions designated by ISO 3664-2000. As a
general guide, the following conditions are
recommended.
Color Temperature : 5000
300 K
Average Illumination : 500 Lux or more
General Color Rendering Index : Ra 90 or more*
* To attain these values, special fluorescent lamps
designed for color evaluation (e.g. EDL type)
should be used.
When inspecting finished prints, be careful to shut out
all external light and colored reflected light.
