Eclipse Satine with the 1160, UltraChrome (UC) Matte Black, and the Epson
driver printing an RGB-partitioned file gives a DMax of 1.62.  With the
Piezo driver it's 1.54.

I have been printing with a Piezo/FS-compatible quad I mixed from the UC
Matte-K.  It gives a warm print that is close to the original PiezoBW or MIS
quads after those have totally warmed.

This or some other pure carbon ink might make a very nice FS-Warm &/or warm
end of the standard MIS VM inkset.  I'm doing fade testing now.

I have not coated one of these yet.
