Digital BW, The Print

I'm using the MIS variable mix quadtones on an Epson 1200 with Epson 
archival matte.  I use the Roark workflow and Photoshop curves that are 
available from the MIS website.  The output is, to put it mildly, 
extraordinary, and the variable inkset allows for considerable control over 
the tonal quality of the print--from quite "cool" to warm.

The Roark workflow and the .acv files are at:

I'd love to be able to compare what I'm getting to the Cone piezeography 
output.  Anyone interested in swapping prints?
