If you have the bulk Eboni MK inks and can get carts for a 1500W, you can set that printer up as a 3-MK printer just like the 1800. I prefer the smoother Eboni-6 look, but the 1400/1500W (assuming they are the same) uses the same 1.5 picoliter drop size that the 1800 used. I made some basic 1400 3-MK QTR profiles for this purpose. You may need to linearize these for different papers.
