Todd,

YES. The new inks fare MUCH better with regard to long term fading. Because
warm fade is also to some degree a reduction in density. While the original
inks and MIS-FS inks have warm fading, these do not. They are stable on
coatings. 

The inks do not use dye stuff.

The Selenium Tone inks? Public release is less than 30 days away.
