Epson seems to believe it's ozone, but there has never been a scientifically
verified replication. They have also finally admitted it's the ink and not the
paper making the *reformulated* paper a red herring. Interestingly, complaints
of color shifts in as little as 48 hours cluster near the coastlines. Maybe
you're just geographically lucky.

Interesting side note. I've had my Epson 1270 since May. I have pictures
all over my office, printed on the Premium Glossy paper that is supposed to
shift. Still flawless, no glass, no protection. I don't think they have
ever figured out what the circumstances would be that cause the problem.
I love the thing, but I'm one of the 'lucky ones'.

I assume your friend means the P20000, the 870/1270 still have color shift
problems caused by atmospheric pollution. In fact, Epson has stopped
advertising them as *archival* and now calls them *lightfast*. They are also
buying back printers from customers who complain enough. This subject is
thoroughly discussed on the Web.
