I really would like to compare these MIS inks to what I'm using now to 
see if/what differences there are. But I'm not going to buy them, 
especially since they give very little description of what's new or 
better. Maybe it is just a name change, and the will be adding a light 
light black to them, not really sure.

One thing to do would be to compare the L*a*b* values of the full 7600 
cyan and magenta to what I'm using. Maybe printed on a Hahnemuhle 
paper. It would need to be from a linearization test strip from a RIP, 
not from the RGB driver. Compared to the MIS GP Archival inks, the ink 
I'm using now is very different.
