inks have the same color gamut as Epson inks and I believe it because prints with his inks 
and Epson paper/profiles look just like prints with Epson inks. The prints using ABW also 
look the same.

But your not limited to using Epson paper/profiles. He ship this inkset with a cd of about 
45 color profiles for Epson, Hahnemule, Innova, Inkpress, Moab (I think), and his new 
JonCone Studio Papers (4 types. I'm now using Type 3, an acid/ligin-free white ultra 
smooth heavy weight 275gsm EEM look-a-like). So, you can use this inkset for both color 
and black and white with success.
