Are you sure you have Eboni-6?  It's a monotone carbon inkset with no 
cool inks.  See http://www.paulroark.com/BW-Info/Eboni-6.pdf

The other 1400 inkset I've been involved with that MIS sells is 
UT14.  See http://www.paulroark.com/BW-Info/UT14.pdf  

While UT14 does, indeed, have quite warm carbon inks, as well as a 
cool ink channel, the warm ones are in the M channel.

So, I'm not really sure what you have in that printer.
