Re: Epson Enhanced Matte

The short answer is No. It yellows rapidly under light, apparently due
to  exaustion of it's optical brightners. Although no one knows for
certain, it is likely to yellow even more over the long term as it
ages due to it's acid and lignen content just as every other acid
containing paper does.
