Digital BW, The Print

The problem with the canon at this time is that all of the inks available
for it are dye based. There are rumors that canon is working on pigment
based inks but I don't think i will hold my breath waiting. Jon Cone of
inkjetmall is suppossssedly working on a pigmented B&W set for the s9000 but
it hasn't surfaced yet even though it was promised for May...

At this point I can't see any way around getting a Epson if you want long
term (75 yr+ years) longevity. The other thing you might want to be
concerned with is the paper you are using since I don't think that either of
those are acid free archival products.

  Thanks for the input, Roger.
  I'm really concerned about fading, since in just a
  short while I see color shifts in the supposed black
  ink on my cards printed on both Georgia Pacific
  Cardstock and laid card stock.
  I wish there were a solution to the cast problem with
  the S9000 with a 3rd party ink with some longevity.
