I use a Tektronix Phaser 850. It has a "deposited wax" printing system. What is the rated life of these printouts?
Typically our printouts will be stored in files with limited exposured to air and light. Can we expect a 5 year life (or 10, or 30 years) before the image fades or deteriorates in some other way?
How do these printouts deteriorate? Color fading? Wax peeling off paper? Wax attaching to adjacent paper if packed too tightly in the filing system?
Thanks for your insight!
