MIS fade tests and Magentas

2007-05-07 by Richard Smallfield

Hi,
people seem to think that the MIS magenta inks are less lightfast than Epson's. But I looked up the MIS fade tests and they claim the opposite.

S0 ... are the MIS fade tests scientifically sound? I wonder, because they use bleach instead of light to test fading.

thanks,
Richard
