You might take a look at the MIS Inks.  They offer a number of options:

You also might take a look at what Piezography has to offer:

I'm using their plug-in and am quite happy with it.  The plug-in can be used
with PiezoToneInks as well as MIS inks designed for use with the Piezo
plug-in.  I was very pleased with what I was getting with the PiezoInks, but
was put off with clogging problems with my 1280.  Right now I'm using the
MIS inks.  I can't say which is better, the MIS or the PiezoInks, but I
would lean toward the Piezo...except for the frustrating clogging.  The
Piezo people are also coming out with ICC/ICM profiles for "a variety of
media."

Have fun...
