Yes, and all 100% Eboni is the same.

The commercial base I found that works best as a dilutant for Eboni 
is what appears to have some issues with the modern glossy inks.  So, 
it's not the 100% Eboni that I've been warned about, but rather the 
dilute inks in Eboni-6 that might be incompatible with glossy bases.

Most of the colors are MIS K4 colors and PK.  The K4-PK is a lower 
load ink that gives a better dmax with many of the newest printers, 
although I found MP-PK was better in my 1800.
