Ok, got it, thanks.

Yes, definitely one of the limitations.  You're at the mercy of the
ink for its color.  Fortunately I really like the color I'm getting
with the MIS VM/FS ink.  It's similar to what I had with my favorite
Ilford MGFB III and Quicksilver developer.

Well, _that's_ interesting.  I'll have to find out more about this
printer.

Understood.  Well, good luck with it.  We're all on our own individual
journeys through this forest.  Thanks very much for the extra info. 
It sheds some more light on things.
