Ah yes, I thought that might be what you were thinking after I posted 
the question.  I think Dan uses piezography with good results. I 
imagine any of the inks people use here would work for it, since you 
have to work out your own test strips and probably tweak your own 
curves anyway (my personal opinion is that piezo plugin would be the 
easiest here since you wouldn't have to deal with two sets of curves 
adjustments)
