Ceramic pigment-based, chemically-modified porous coatings can benused for enhancing image permanence of ink-jet image printing. Specifically, anporous coated media sheet, comprising a media substrate, having a porousncoating coated thereon comprising a ligand-modified ceramic pigment (10)nincluding a fixer ligand (46) and/or a stabilizer ligand (48), each covalentlynattached to the ceramic pigment (12) is disclosed. Additionally, a method andnsystem for preparing permanent ink-jet images is also provided. |
