I've owned a Epson Photo (the original) printer since it's introduction, same one for these last 5 years. Printed images onto their photo glossy paper with their inks. I've had one on my wall where it gets a good deal of light, and it's a nice as the day I printed it.... Not scientific, but interesting to note. Kind of makes me wonder if I should bother to get a new model that uses the newer inks....Rob Miracle <rwm@photo-miracles.com> writes: [only slightly out of context] > I could never consciously sell a ink jet print.

I have put vanishingly litte effort into working out how to make prints. I have an HP deskjet 930c printer, and simply printing on plain (A4) paper makes a quite reasonable print for me to look at, and I had one of them pinned to the wall by my desk for months without anything obvious changing. So I thought, I'll buy some of this fancy 'photo' paper; it looks much nicer, but leave a print exposed to daylight (not direct sunlight), and within 10 days it's fading, in a month it's more or less gone. Is there something incredibly elementary that I have missed? Brian Chandler ----------------
