I went a while without seeing it, but my prints were usually going under 
something fairly quickly, either framed or stacked. I had one large test 
print sitting on my shelf with a stack of small ones covering up only one 
side. A few weeks later, I look over and see all orange! Mind you, this is 
a print that started as a blue/grey winter scene. I lifted up the stack and 
that side was still normal. The shelf gets no direct sunlight and almost 
none indirect. The problem seems be air-borne, not light. People seem to be 
thinking ozone or another pollutant, which is why they missed it in 
testing. I haven't had any problem with framed prints yet, but I didn't 
want to take the risk for sales so I took advantage of the buy-back and got 
into the Piezo system. I don't really miss the color option.
