Terry,

The R9 will not work at all with the MIS-VM inks. If you print using the two
you will get a weird print that is blue in the midtones since one of the
gray inks is replaced with the Cyan tinted toner ink.

Basically ink sets and software are designed specifically to work with each
other and are not interchangeable. The R9 plug-in will work with Sundance
inks, Piezotone inks and MIS Full Spectrum which gives you a total of about
9 different ink sets to choose from. Or you can use the VM with the RGB
separation curves or with a RIP that supports that ink set.
