Digital BW, The Print

Hi Richard;

Your experience is closer to mine were EEM is concerned, but I have a 
question-did you pin the prints directly to the wall with no backing 
or barrier, and what kind of paint is on the wall? I've had 
indications that latex paint for one, will yellow inkjet paper faster.

has gone markedly cream compared with a fresh sheet. Most alarming - 
it's not an option for use in my country it would seem.
