Either MIS UT7 inks if you want to go for a dedicated BW inkset or Roy 
Harrington's QuadToneRIP (QTR) if you want to keep using the original 
Ultrachrome inks. Imageprint will also print very good BW with the 
original inks, but at a much higher cost. Since QTR is nearly free I 
suggest you try that first.

As for paper I recommend you to read Clayton Jones' excellent article 
"The great paper chase" and decide for yourself which ones you want to try.
