I have also found this to be the case. Results have been unpredictable though. Sometimes the metamerism is not to bad, but often it is completely unacceptable. I can not spot a pattern to this, though I suspect there must be one. I am now trying to choose an alternative. Should I stick with the Lyson DYE ink philosophy and try their SG set ? Or, are pigment inks the way to go ? Is anyone using the new Permajet range? As I understand it, pigment inks can not be used on gloss/semi-gloss papers but they do not suffer metamerism and have better longevity. Is this true ? Is it really possible to produce photographic quality inkjets that can be sold on with confidence ? And if so what ink/paper combinations ? Personally, I would like a semi-gloss (silk/lustre) option, is it possible? And also for a colour solution? Sorry for so many questions but, it's a jungle out there, any advise/pointers much appreciated.
