mimaki cjv30- can you use the ss21 orange with this machine, and how soon until SS21 fades?

[bteifeld]

I'd like to know two things please:

1. Can you use SS21 orange ink on the Mimaki CJV30?

2. Everyone may remember that the Roland orange ink on the RF640 eight color machine
would fade noticeably within 3 months. Anyone know about the permanence of the
SS21 orange ink?

My understanding is that it is the pigment used to create the orange that causes it to fade so quickly and not the manufacturer. We had the same issue with Epson orange inks.

I have only had my Mimaki CJV150-75 only for a few years. it uses SS21 inks, 8 colors: including orange. The inks do not fade.
