It's not necessarily the paper, but could well be due to incomplete stopping/fixing during development. Have you checked the paper of the different prints? (Usually marked on the back)
Being in an album, and hence mostly closed and not exposed to light, the only other factors I can think or are humidity and heat. Now central heating has a tendency to make a house drier and warmer than other forms of heating - downstairs is usually worse than upstairs.

I have a Pentax SF-7 and MZ-30 so I'm just waiting for the price on their *ist D to drop within reach (and/or lottery win
