No you can't .  All of the FS inks including the grays are incompatible with
the glossy/semi-matte papers.  You will need to change to all Ultra-Quad
inks including the photo black to make the inks truly compatible with the
paper.  You will be much more likely to get neutral prints by using the
Ultra-Quads with the Semi-Matte paper.  MIS FS is very warm of neutral on
the BC semi-matte.  FS-N is closer to neutral on this paper...but with the
ultra-quads and a driver like the ink jet control software you should be
able to get something that is exactly neutral (whatever that is for you)
with the BC semi-matte.
