I've been running the MIS Full Spectrum Neutral (MIS-FSN) set in my 7500
quite successfully.  Studioprint doesn't care whose ink is in there; you
tell it which positions have which tones of ink (approximately), print some
test targets, and measure the resulting densities.  Studioprint does the
rest.  I'm happy with it.

However, I'm switching over to Piezotones because I don't much like the
tones of the MIS FSN inks, though -- hard to explain, but it just doesn't
have much "character" to it.  Maybe it's *too* neutral.  Once the carts make
their way here from Vermont, I'll be playing with combinations of Sepia and
Selenium.
