From: theory4debate on 27 Aug 2008 00:37 I made a post a few months ago that I was very impressed with hobbicolors ink for a 5 color printer. Here's the link... http://groups.google.com/group/comp.periphs.printers/browse_thread/thread/1c2b0d0ff596a9a1/27563a55a8198ac4?lnk=st&q=hobbicolors+5+color#27563a55a8198ac4 However, today I looked at the pictures that were printed 2 months ago and it has noticeable fade. The paper that was used was the 4x6 Staples brand photo paper. Although the hobbicolor ink is still very impressive when it was printed 2 months ago, I'm very disappointed that it only lasted 2 months. The photos were printed was never in direct sunlight. I'm not sure if I did something wrong. Does anybody know why it would fade that fast?

I predict he won't be able to resist rising to the bait, and bite like a big, black alsatian. -- - Nic.

Ignore both, they're just trolls. As for Hobbicolors ink, I've been using it for more than 5 years and framed (behind glass) prints are as pristine and colorful as the day they were created. It goes without saying any unframed, unprotected print will fade in two months or less. I made a test with Canon ink on Photo PaperPro, unprotected, not in direct sunlight and it went an "Irish green" in less than 2 months. Happy St. Pat's day, but ........

And these are that OEM ink has the best resistance to fading and produce the highest quality photo prints. Your results just underscores what I have been saying and what many of the idiot postings in this ng attempt to contradict. But facts are facts. > The photos were printed was never in direct sunlight. I'm not sure if > I did something wrong. Does anybody know why it would fade that fast? > |
