Just wondering if anyone has any idea about the longevity (degradation) of prints from the likes of the Epson A3/A2 as compared to chemical developed photo lab pictures.

Most all Quality, Printing paper gives a life of 100yrs, That'l do me I suppose depending on the operator you'd expect the Lab ones to last longer maybe

a pro lab using wet printing will be superior to home printing; there are no free lunches. paper might be rated as archival, but the inks are just as important.
