Digital BW, The Print

Curious,I've been using the FS set in my remaining BC SM and it's printing
fine,and pretty neutral(or whatever looks neutral to me...!) using those
John Wool'f curves. So,guess mystery is part of the game. The real upgrade
for me shall be when THAT Canon comes up,the looks (as far as I'm aware)
that I'll have to change to Piezo inks,as only they announced inks for it.

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.
