The objective of this Standard is to specify tests to determine the relative water resistance of printed colour images.
Water resistance is not an important consideration in the normal storage of colour prints. However, in a disaster situation, such as floods, earthquakes or water main breaks, this property can be of critical importance if the print is to be salvaged. A wide variety of materials are used for digital colour prints and the colorants used in some digital prints are water soluble. The degree of their water resistance varies depending upon the colorants used and if the print has a water-resistant overcoat.
In addition, the paper or other substrate may be of equal importance. The same colorants may exhibit very good water resistance on one substrate but can be completely washed off from a different substrate. Even print systems that use water-insoluble colorants may be damaged by water exposure if the substrate is not also water resistant. This document provides a standardized method to evaluate the qualitative water resistance of colour prints.
