The VM/FS black is unchanged (so far).

All the midtones are different from older inks.  The cyan inks for the VM
and FS systems are the same.  After that, the midtones for the two systems
diverge.

So, VM-Sepia-Neutral users will want  VM-S-N cyan, magenta, and sepia toner.
There is also a full hextone set for those printers.

FS-Neutral users will want FS-N cyan, magenta and yellow.  Hextone Piezo
users also have the full set available.

(There may, in the near future, also be a full hextone FS-N for the Epson
driver.)

MIS is mixing as we type.

True.  It's a bit cold here, but after that Raider/Patriot blizzard game
last night I guess I better keep my mouth shot.
