Yes it is..  They look great...  I wouldn't call them smack dab neutral 
though... and no 6 color ink set will match the tonality range of a 
monochrome hex inkset

and the inks are still dye-based, so the archival concerns rise for 
fine-art printers..

The S900 is a great printer out of the box, but there isn't a one-stop 
solution to printing yet... if there ever  will be..
