They have no other choice given the competition that has 
PK+MK on several models for 18 months now. The next question 
is whether they get gloss enhancer too like one of the 
competition has for 18 months. That cyclops head + virtual 
10th channel could have been used on the 11880 for that task 
instead of compromising the inks to get better gloss.
