Sounds good to me, Neil.
The problem with HP's pigment inks (to compare apples with apples --
Ultrachrome inks are pigment-based after all), if I recall, is their NOT
being pigment-based but rather dye-based, in actuality?
That is what I was told by an HP rep at a show when I asked about the
stability of the new ink used in the HP130. True or not? I did not have my
spectro to test this with me -- I don't walk around with a 530 in my pocket
all the time.
That HP rep said to me that the inks used in the 130 were "light-fast",
meaning resistant to fading, but stable out of the printer.
I don't know what time it takes for those new HP inks to actually stabilize
but that's bugging the hell out of me. Whereas with Epson UC inks, at least,
they are stable, colorwise, almost right out of the printer.
