Re: 1160 and MIS arc inks (was "1160 & Archiva")



Joel,

I've been using XG ink in my 1160 for a couple of weeks, and am now
waiting for ProfilerRGB to arrive (I was previously trying to get good
color using the Epson driver sliders).  Anyway, the other day I did a
quickie torture test, putting prints inside a plastic bag filled with
car exhaust. The XG+Ilford Glossy did not shift at all. All the other XG
prints showed magenta fade, quite marked on Polar Gloss and EPGPP, and
very noticeable but not severe on Epson HW Matte.

More data points suggesting the Gelatin in the Ilford paper is an
important contributor to fade resistance are accumulating.
