Bernd -

Does this mean that you are successfully using the MIS Full Spectrum inks
to export images through the Piezography BW driver? If so, are you
encountering any problems (nozzle clogging, etc.)? As you know if you've
been following the long exchange here, I am not entirely happy with MIS
Variable Mix but I dislike the very warm tone of the usual Piezo inks.

Thanks for the valuable information.
