It's a funny business, all right. I have several 8x10s just pinned to a
cork board where they are exposed to indirect sunlight, lots of tungsten
light and whatever is in the air, including the adjacent kitchen. They
have been there over a year and there is no obvious color shift. I'm
sure if I made new prints I would see a difference, but any changes are
apparently even enough between the dyes that no tint shift is
noticeable. These are mostly family portraits with large areas of skin
tones. These are from the 1270 with Epson inks and Epson Photo paper,
not even the fancy Premium Glossy stuff.

I had a 1280 and Epson bought it back. All of my prints turned Orange in less
than 2 months .. the cyan just faded away. I now have the Canon 9000 and an
Epson 2200 and have had no problems with either although I did expect them with
the 9000 since it uses dye based inks like the 1280.
