As long as you have the carts and MIS continues to supply those (getting
old) inks, the MIS pigments and the CMCMY approach should work fine.
 You'll need to use a Epson driver workflow, but with that inkset such a
workflow works well.  You'll probably have to make some adjustments to the
Photoshop curves that exist for a few other printers where I've set up this
CMCMY ink arrangement   Once you get close, QTR's Create ICC-RGB will allow
a very nice ICC workflow.

Good luck,
