No...if you are talking about MIS FS or VM inks.  They might work with the
color ink sets...but will still probably need to be sprayed.  I've evaluated
all of these papers with the MIS inks.  The Luster paper works ok...but must
be sprayed...it is not the best Luster out there.  So far I would say that
Brightcube Semi-Matte is the best one...but it still needs to be sprayed.
