Digital BW, The Print

Hello Chris,

>UT2 vs Septone

Unless something has changed during the past year, the Septone inks
still use dye in the black and it fades and color shifts.  A Septone
test print on my windowsill began fading at 125 days.

UT2/UT7 inks are Eboni-based and are very stable.  I have a BO/Eboni
print on my south windowsill getting some direct sunlight every day
(and indirect bright daylight all day) and at 13 months now still
shows no signs of fading.

I have also heard numerous tales over the past year from Septone users
similar to the other reports in this thread re clogging, etc.


Regards,
Clayton
