Re: Museo & Eclipse fade tests

2001-10-02 by Martin Wesley

Paul,

Both the Eclipse Satine and Museo results are posted in:

Files>Message Related Files

Your diligent and very controlled testing of these ink and paper 
combinations is greatly appreciated in this new area where hard data 
is in short supply.

Since Paul's earlier tests included a correlation between MIS VM on 
EAM and Piezo on EAM these results should be of interest to all. On 
EAM Piezo and MIS VM reached similar endpoints but at different 
rates. In addition both are carbon pigment based and I would think 
that there would be more similarities than differences in the way 
they fade.

Thank you,

Martin
