Digital BW, The Print

Well if a lot of people were really interested I'm sure there would 
be motive. It sounds like your ideal inkset would provide the 
solutions in one inkset and printer that multiple inksets manage to 
do now. If it was simple to use people would probably love it ( I 
know I would). Maybe you could set a poll and see if users share your 
vision. If enough people are interested we may be able to persuade 
the powers that be to create a new driver & inkset. With you as a 
beta tester of course ;~)

P.S. Thanks everyone for the info- very helpful. No more vision of 
blue paper!
