Digital BW, The Print

Hello all,

My Epson 1400 just arrived and refillable carts are on the way. Now I
need to choose an inkset. Carbon pigment or color pigment? Up to now
I've been printing with carbon pigment only, but this time maybe I'd
like to do color as well.

1- Choosing the Eboni-6 would be a no brainer since as Paul just
mentionned BO or the full set can be used depending on the paper.
Lightfastness if I'm not mistaken should be most excellent.

Questions: 
-There are eight inks in the Eboni-6 inkset. Which ones can/should I use?

-Can glossy paper be used at this time or has this option not
available yet?

- When doing BO, with QTR I presume, can one print full size (A3+) and
still get potentially good printing? Up to now I have limited BO
prints to 8.5x11"

2- Color printing: Would the K4 inkset be indicated for both color and
 b&w printing on the Epson 1400. 

Again, which of the eight inks in the K4 inkset could I use on a
printer like the 1400? 

Matte or glossy or both with this inkset. Pros and con with this inket.

Your input will be great value to me and needless to say much appreciated.

Thank you,
Andre
