Digital BW, The Print

Jerry and others,

Just over two years ago before buying a CIS/Inkset for my 1170 I recieved 3
Generations/EAM test swatches from NoMoreCarts.  I taped two on my monitors,
one in my home, one at my beach place.  These were subjected to normal
indirect sunlight, incandescent light and normal household atmosphere, the
beach swatch got a constant Atlantic exposure.  The last I left in the
envelope in a drawer.
A recent scan is at:  http://www.pbase.com/image/4527519
The top is the drawer, middle the beach, bottom the house.  I don't know if
the results, (or almost non-results) have any meaning.
