Digital BW, The Print

In my own "Foyer Test" (where a mounted print has been 
exposed to varying amounts of daylight, and certain extremes of 
temperature and humidity for a bit under three years), a print 
created with Lyson Quad Black Neutral inks on EEM has held up 
very well.  And these ins have been well-behaved in my Epson 
1160.  All I'm waiting for now is my sample pack of Lyson 
Darkroom Glossy and Matte papers to arrive.
