Antonis,

Thanks for posting all the Dmax data. I took the liberty of posting a Adobe
Acrobat version for those who do not have Excel.

For those who are looking for them, the files are in the:

Files > Ink Sets, reviews and techniques

section of the group's homepage.

A quick question: I am using Piezo 6.0.2 Release 5 on my 1160 which doesn't
list the new ink in the Ink Selection Drop Down Menu.  Does one use the
existing Conetech PiezographyBW selection or is there an upgrade to the
software available?

The ink was formulated to work with the existing profiles. There 
is no software upgrade needed.

Yes, use the same profiles.

Thanks for the great comparison list, but since no good deed goes
unpunished, is there a chart that includes the MIS FS inks as well?

Stephen,

You do not need new profiles... however, I believe that you might enjoy
upgrading to 6-0-4 which does, I think, have more profiles added (though my
recollection is somewhat faded on 'was it 6-0-2 or 6-0-3 that added
profiles???')

Best regards,

Nij

Thanks Nij; I upgraded just after posting my message.  Not sure yet if it
added more profiles or not.  But I do like to be current...
