Sooner than later the EEF will be warm, shifting from a 1.5 to -1.3,  b 
-5 to +4. In prints made on it with Canon Lucia pigments or Epson K3 it 
is the paper white that shifts extremely. The white reflectance stays at 
the same level with L 96.0. A matt paper that matches the EEF halfway 
its degradation could be a solution but I think that EEF is not 
signature worthy in the first place.
