TLA fever eh?  (Three Letter Acronim....)

No problems.

GEN4 is the Generation Enhanced (4) black ink - from either 
Mediastreet or MWORDS, depending which side of the pond you're on.
It has a fantastic Dmax, but is not 100% pigment, there is a dye 
element in there as well.  I did a window test vs. Epson OEM dyes and 
there was just no comparison.  I'm not saying it will last as long as 
Eboni or Museum black, but it meets my needs.

The VM is ''Variable Mix' and is one of the standard hextone sets 
from MIS for use with Pauls curves.

The GP is also from MIS and is their 'Glossy Pigment' colour set, 
based as a copy of the Epson Ultracrime inks.

Hope this helps.

Steve
