You are right, the instructions do not specifically say Photo Black. The site says "Do not use Eboni as the Black Ink for blending. Original Archival Black, 7600 Light Black, or 7600 Photo Black are the acceptable black inks for blending." But I can't believe the differece between Photo black and 7600 Photo Black would change the mix from 60% to 5% Grayscale. There's something else I'm missing or the information is just wrong.
