Julian,

I have some of Bernd's prints covering the same range of ink and 
driver options and I agree with all Shaun has to say above. I will 
add that the MIS FS are not going to print exactly like the Piezo 
inks. The process may involve some different adjustment to your files 
prior to printing. The final results may not be absolutely identical 
but what they show is that all three options are fully viable ways to 
make a top quality inkjet print.
