<x-charset iso-8859-1>Bob, it's an ozone problem. If you are working in an air conditioned building than that is what's going on. Check out this link for more information: http://www.wilhelm-research.com/index.htm Note that Wilhelm suggests "curing" the print by drying it for 24 hours under a sheet of ordinary paper before exposing it to the atmosphere.

I have seen many discussions on other newsgroups about this, but no answers. My coworkers are laughing after I told them that the prints would last 10 years. They are really laughing after I printed the same picture on the "new" premium glossy paper and the "old" glossy paper. The "old" shows no fad after a week and the "new" is changing to orange. Is this a paper, ink, or combo problem? Is Epson aware of the issue? I just purchased 5 packs of premium glossy and 10 color cartridges to do a large presentation to be posted at a seminar....I don't wish to have the prints fad before my clients eyes! I would expect the photo's to last a year or more without any fading under controlled lighting. - Turn off HTML mail features. Keep quoted material short.
