Re: Fading - Permanent Digital Photographs from any Epson Printer

["john read" <digital@marrutt.com>]

Dear Bob:

These inks ARE from Lyson, but are not Lysonic,
which although of great fade resistance, do not have the
required colour gamut to satisfy professional photographers.

This new formulation is Lyson Fotonic Professional, which
gives you the permanence required, with the colour gamut.

Visually, you get vibrant reds, greens and blues which are
not available with a Lysonic Ink.

But to really prove this....

Send me a scan of a known colour range, I will run it out
with Lyson Fotonic Professional, and DHL it back to you.

Many thanks your communication.
