Digital BW, The Print

Hello all,

It's me again asking for some help in making an informed decision 
about a CFS for my Epson 1280 printer. After almost two years of 
trail and error and help from the kind posters on this newgroup,I 
have arrived at a point in my digital endeavors that I can make a 
print that is just what I want. The monitor matches the print so it 
really is WYSIWYG (finally). The inkset I use is MIS Full Spectrum 
Neutral in refillable cartridges. The FSN works just fine with 
anything I throw at it. It works just fine with PiezoBW plugin as 
well as PiezoBW ICC and even just from Photoshop with no curves 
applied for printing. I know I've read the warnings about that not 
supposed to be the case, but it does work that way. The inks are from 
MIS and are labeled C  LC-E  M  LM-E  Y.  The C M Y are from the Quad 
set and the LC AND LM are from the Hextone set for the Epson driver. 

MIS website mentions the phasing out of the Quadtone inks in favor 
for the Ultratone family on new inks developed by our own Paul Roark. 
I have sent email to MIS but haven't heard from them yet, so I would 
like to ask the collected wisdom available on this newgroup for 
guidance in this dilemna. I have spent time, ink, and money and would 
not like to start all over again in the case of the inks being phased 
out. Advice on any alternatives short of starting all over again will 
be most welcome. The Piezotone inks are much too expensive for my 
budget and will invoke the trial and error method all over again. I 
would like to stick with MIS inks.HHHHHEEEEEELLLLLPPPPP.

Your frind in a photographic quandry,

Johnny
