yesterday I thought I wouldn't post another boring scan of my fade targets, but o.k., to illustrate the situation better here is the DL vs. L800 inks target scan:
That's after 4 weeks, both inks are pretty close , barely any change yet, the L800 black is now starting to get lighter, but not by so much yet vs. the DL black. It's more obvious outside in the sunshine , rather rare these days. It's your choice . The Magentas are a different hue, that's up to you to run a profile with the ink of your choice to compensate that. And be aware I'm running both inks not in their original printers - but both in a L300, just with the same driver settings - ICM off to get the same amount of ink onto the paper. Switching inks for the various tests is the easiest for me this way, and leftover ink is printed away pretty quickly.
