Digital BW, The Print

Martin,  is this with the piezo inks? I'm going to put one with the MIS cold
tone inks in the south window tomorrow. I'll use the cool curve, and we'll
see how it fares in a few weeks.

There aren't a lot of papers around that seem not to fade, are there? I've
not seen it with epson Archival yet, so there's one good one. I sure hope
the photo matte holds up. Of course I've also not seen any green cast with
piezo inks either!

The Epson archival has withstood 3 months in a south window with practically
no change in color using Pauls curve and the MIS variable inkset. The
doctored piezo yellow position ink was also a good candidate, and did not
fade either. The epson paper turned a slight cream color, but the inks
didn't change visually. I suppose an instrument would have seen changes.
