Then if you want 100% carbon on matte paper, MIS PK, LK, and LLK, or Peizo K6 carbon are the way to go.

With the MIS warm carbon, you'll want the Eboni MK for matte paper.  The PK does not give a good dmax.  It is used as a dark mistone ink.  That's why the layout is K=Eboni, C & M = PK, LC & LM = LK, and Y = LLK.

The inks are sold by MIS as the "K4" K, PK, LK, and LLK. See

For the Piezo carbon K6 see

With Piezo inks you'll want Jon's profiles and QTR, I think.  With the MIS carbon set up as above, the Epson driver will be close.  A simply linearization with QTR's Create ICC will help.  I do not have specific profiles for the MIS setup above.

Hope this helps.
