Digital BW, The Print

Dear friends,

I tried to look in archive to find answers, but I didn't succeed. I 
would like to ask you for suggestion:

I like to buy Epson printer for A4 prints with MIS VM ink. I would 
like to choose printer which is currently on market. I do not know if 
I should go for 4 inks or 6 inks. And I must say I am lost between 
model numbers which are discussed here (most US) and the ones I can 
buy in Europe.

I was thinking about Epson 890, but that one is out of market and 
can't buy it anymore.

I also like to try first with cartridges and later on with CIS if I 
am satisfied with results.

I do not know which printer need what kind of complexity of 
modifications for CIS.

And I am not really sure what kind of printer has support for 
workflow using MIS VM inks.

Thank you for your suggestions.
