If you use a printer that uses a pigment based ink fading is not a
problem. Printers that use dye based inks produce prints that can
fade in a matter of months as opposed to 100 years for pigment based
inks. If you buy a good printer and then use generic ink you can
also expect that the prints will not last as long, with ink you get
what you pay for.
