Dan and all,
I would be willing to bet on the inks you refer to below as being color, not
quad black/gray. If anyone is successfully using QUAD BLACK "PIGMENT" inks
with Pictorico OHP film, PLEASE come forward - I know that this question has
been asked several times on this list and not one person has responded. The
following response to an inquiry at Pictorico may be meaningful here.

Chip, I'm still searching around for the all purpose pigment based
printer/ink setup. My interest is to avoid multiple printers - I already
have 3 on my desk and don't want a 4th.
Would you care to let me know which black/gray 'pigment' based inks dry well
on your OHP film? Other than Piezography inks.
Many thanks,
Nick

Nick,
I'm not really sure. I've heard that Lyson inks might, but we haven't
tested them yet.
