Digital BW, The Print

Lawrence, I haven't seen any fading or color shifting at all with the 
MIS VM inks and Enhanced Generations
black ink. The test prints lasted nearly 3 months in a sunny window 
before fading was noticeable.

(If you REALLY want to get depressed, put a print using ANY inkset 
outside in the sun, with no glass protection.)

Most will fade noticeably in a week or two....

But who would do that with a work of art anyhow?



>>Holy Cow, you'd think Cone would have gotten his inks right by now. How
>>many times has he had faulty inks? 5? 6?  Wonder if he does any real
>>world tests.

>>Sheesh!
