# Tests developed and conducted by EPSON under fluorescent light (indoor display condition) with 
glass mount. The data is calculated by EPSON’s accelerated test of prints on speciality media. 
See www.epson.com.au for more info.
Data is calculated using accelerated simulation of fading under indoor preservation conditions 
including fluorescent light indoor display. Temperature, humidity and some atmospheric gases 
may also affect the rate of fading. The estimated lightfastness period does not indicate the 
colour changing or the durability of the paper itself. EPSON recommends that your prints be 
stored in a photo album (or plastic photo storage box) in acid free, archival sleeves commonly 
available from most camera shops.
