The etch rate of a warm solution is way higher than cold. regarding the
preserving of the ink not sure, if the ink is dissolving or being etched by
the solution it will may not make a difference with dilute solution because
the copper etch rate will also slow down and it has to be in the solution
longer which will give it more time to react with the ink. If the
temperature actually softens the ink and dissolves it faster then it is a
different story....
