Do the MIS Full Spectrum and the VM belong to dye or to pigment inks? I
thought they are a mix. If you count them as pigs, what are the dye inks
called they sell?

Not to challenge David's choice, or any inkset Mark might be
considering, but I'm curious and eager to know their, and others',
opinions of Lyson's dye-based Fotonic inkset, which is the one I've
thought I would use.

I use Fotonic inks in an 1160 - good gamut, but you must profile the
printer/ink/paper combination as the canned profiles are no good. With a
profile you can get a neutral monochrome print, but significant metamerism
is an issue - the prints look rather magenta under artificial light.
