Digital BW, The Print

I would think that if variability of tone is not needed and matte paper is
acceptable, the Piezo/R9 driver with PiezoTone or MIS FS-N would be a better
choice -- longer-lasting pigmented inks, no messing around with any color
correction and related problems, no metamerism, and, at least with MIS,
cheaper (I think).

  I'd recommend the Lyson SG inkset over the Lyson Quads..  Compatible
  with the same or a greater range of media..  Newer technology.. Much
  less metamerism..
