I found none of their then-current bases good for Eboni. The one I chose did not used to be sold by MIS separately. Nor did then sell the UT base separately. I've recommended that they start selling these bases, but I have not heard whether they are. > Anyway I mixed a C-6 set with the clear version.

But she makes such beautiful prints! The 7500 may be the best for coated stock where neutral tone is the target. The larger dots are cooler - about 1 Lab B unit per printer dot size (i.e., 7600 1 unit warmer than 7500, 1400 1 unit warmer than 7600). I think the K2-K3 printers are a good compromise, however. And for Arches uncoated stock, the 7500 is simply too rough for many shots. Paul www.PaulRoark.com
