Permanence ratings are based on accelerated testing of prints made on specialty media, displayed indoors, under glass or UV filter. Actual print stability will vary according
to media, printed image, display conditions, light intensity, humidity, and atmospheric conditions. Epson does not guarantee longevity of prints. For maximum print life,
display all prints under glass, UV filter, lamination or properly store them. See www.wilhelm-research.com for the latest information.
