Where did you see that? You've got me confused with the other Steve 
I think. The VMs didn't work well in my 1280 when I tried them six 
months ago. And yes, uprotected in direct sunlight they shifted very 
quickly. I've been coming up with my own dilutions of MIS black and 
clear base, with olny a few drops of blue toner to cool the ink down 
a bit. That holds up better than the VMs, but not well enough that I 
can quit worrying about it. At least that's my current mix, but 
tomorrow I'm following Paul's lead and re-mixing with the Epson 
Archival K. 
I do hope MIS can start selling the Epson K in bulk, that would be 
ideal until something better comes along.
