16 Using EPSON Paper
Storing Your Photos
With proper care, photographs from your EPSON Stylus Photo R300 Series printer will last 
for many years. The special EPSON inks designed for your printer are formulated to achieve 
improved lightfastness when used with EPSON papers for prints that are properly displayed 
or stored. 
As with traditional photos, proper care will minimize color changes and lengthen display life:
■ For display, EPSON recommends that prints be framed under glass or a protective plastic 
sleeve to protect them from atmospheric contaminants like humidity, cigarette smoke, 
and high levels of ozone. 
■ As with all photographs, keep your prints away from high temperatures and humidity and 
out of direct sunlight. 
■ For proper storage, EPSON recommends that you keep prints in a photo album or plastic 
photo storage box in acid-free, archival sleeves commonly available from most camera 
stores.
■ Be sure to follow any other storage and display instructions included in the paper 
package.
