That's what I read so far online, however the OEM did deliver a B&W without a green tint and the tint is very noticeable with 3rd party ink. The paper I used is Ilford Studio Satin 250 gsm with all test prints, so either it uses another color with it when printing pure B&W or even the octopus...
Took a step back from all this but here is the update. I did indeed receive the BK from octopus office. Yes the black is much better!!!!

The green cast went away a bit but is still noticeable, I ordered a fresh BK one from octopus-office. Hope this mostly fixes the problem. I will be slowly replacing the sudhaus
