Dave - Epson's web site lists the dye based inks used by the R200-R300 series as lasting 30 years on their Matte Paper Heavyweight. They say the pigment inks used in the R800/R1800 are good for 100+ years. No listing for the newer inksets used in the R2400.
While pricier than the R220, I have the R800 and couldn't be happier with it. -P David J Brooks wrote: > Me no, but my customers know were i live.:-) > > The Canon S800 and bci inks are speced out at around 25 years, i > think.
