Just an update

Lyson confirmed that their HEX tone ink sets are DYE inks

So I went for the cheap option of using the Epson black that I 
allready have and ordered a HEX cartridge for the colour position.

Using the standard settings I very quickly got some very nice B&W 
prints, although I must admit to actualy prefering the tone of BO 
prints.
