I was moving some Cibachromes a few days ago. I particularly looked to see if 
they had faded or changed colour. I could discern no change. The prints were 
hung behind thin "plastic" glass in average room conditions with direct dawn 
sunlight for ten years. That is the window faced east. 

I have a blockage when it comes to remembering all the numbers that Epson 
calls their printers. Am I right that the 2100 is the model which takes the 
best inks for longevity?

Ciba 9 months !!!  Cripes, maybe I'd better stick one in my window -
since that's how I 'tested' my inkjets (obvious fading noticeable after
3 months in south-facing window, the one on the wall away from direct
sunlight still fine 8 months on and counting....) >>
