Hi Robert,

The numbers are fantastic, but I can't stand glossy or pearl type papers 
for a fine art print. I have not noticed any
fading or color shifting in the VM inksets with paul's cool or cold 
curve in about 5 years. They look as good as the
day they were printed. This is in low room light conditions. I've been 
using the Gen. 4 Enhanced (beta) black since it came out.

I understand the warm curve prints do color shift more than the cool 
curve prints.
