Bon a tirer? Art prints? Your choice?

yakuzalove asked:
I am in lithography class and was told to sign my prints as bon a tirer. My teacher was very mean and told us to sign some prints as artist proofs if they weren’t “up to standard” and he talked a lot about “art conventions.” Is this how I have to sign prints? As a bon a tirer, edtion, or artist proof? Is it taboo not to sign this way? Why must I sign only in pencil?
