Paul,

I have found the 2200 UT-7 to be a great ink set.  I have been working on
profiles for IJC/OPM ( Mac and PC) and will have these available soon.  On
glossy papers, like the Kirkland Gloss I¹m getting a 2.4 D-Max.

I do think that the MIS information is in reference to the 2200 UT profiles
not being compatible with the UT-7 inks.  This is true, the 2200 UT inks are
very different then the UT-7 inks.
