i've been using some very basic dye ink and really having no problems, however i am about to change over to a better grade pigment ink for what will apparently be better UV resistance and longevity. also i can then get an ICC (must PM you paul about the two i need) as i'll be with consistent ink.

To be honest you biger problem then UV is washing mashine. Ink will be washed off quicker then uv menage to fade your prints. So i would concentrate on better paper too :-)
