I thought that the MIS-FSN inks could be a straight replacement for the original Piezo inks, while the latter were "incompatible" with the new Piezotones. I, therefore, thought that the MIS-FSN inks would be incompatible with the Piezotones as well.

Having seen the Piezotone Selenium ink, I love the tones and would like to start using it but am concerned about the fast fading of the blacks. Are you sure that the MIS-FSN black is indeed compatible with the Piezotones? Have you discussed this with the InkJetMall people?
