Digital BW, The Print

Try carts with any new inkset before investing in a CFS.

The new Piezo ICC approach has similar ink positions to the MIS FS-E setup,
but not exact.  The new versus old quad Piezo positions are: 

New C = old C, 
New LC = old M, 
New M = old M, 
New LM = Y, & 
New Y = old Y.

I suspect MIS will adopt that as a replacement for the FS-E ink setup.
There is no reason to have 2 ink systems that are so similar.  This kind of
ink distribution would work with the Piezo ICCs as well as with the Epson
driver.  It has a bit too much light ink in it for my liking, but it'll
produce very smooth prints.

You might be happiest with the new UT-FSN inkset and the ink distribution
above.  At some point I'll probably try it and make some curves for it, but
I'm too busy with other things right now.  It should be easy for you to make
a simple grayscale curve that matches the print to your monitor.  

Good luck.
