Hello Ellie--

One choice you might want to think about is Sundance Septone 
greyscale inks for the 7600.  I use these inks for the Epson 2200, 
and love them--they provide lush, rich prints, and with the CFS, 
no clogging or banding in the 5 months I have used them.  
These inks also give you a wide range of printing warm to cool 
grays, independently, in the shadows, midtones and highlights.  
This can give your work  a lovely split tone look, as well as 
neutral prints when you want them.  I use Entrada 
fine art paper, which provides very deep blacks.  I tried (and tried 
and tried and tried) using Epson ultrachrome inks to make black 
and white prints, but found them so frustrating that I decided to 
not bother trying to drive them with a RIP like Imageprint.  I was in 
no mood to trust them,  and the taste in my mouth was too sour.

Cheers, and kind regards
