I use NK7 on one of my printers (an Epson 2200). There are no color casts because the 
inks are dilutions of black and grey.

When others talk of a color cast they are refering to the tone of the paper used for the 
print. Warm papers (those without OBA's) will print warm tones because the paper is off-
white. Bright papers will print cool tones because of the OBA's in the paper.

I think the Neutral K7 is good inkset. Give it a try. Use the "house paper" that Cone sells 
called "Bradford Rag" to test the ink/paper combination. This paper comes in shades from 
warm to neutral to cool. It's less expensive than others and it will give a good feel for how 
the ink works with paper that runs from cool to warm.
