I'd like to print in an environmentally friendly way. At the same time, my organization is too young to gamble on the impression our materials will make. I'm committed to using recycled paper, but I'd like to know if soy-based inks will hold up as well over time as regular ink.

I've done some research, but the glowing reviews I've found have all been written by people whose business is selling soybeans or soy inks, so I'm wondering what your real-world results have been.

Thanks!
