Digital BW, The Print

Hello All

I need some advise.

I am using  the 1280 and MIS VM inkset with Paul"s curves.

I am having a problem matching my monitor to my printed output. 

I used Adobe Gamma to set up display.

I am using PS 7 for my images  EPson HWM paper

If I set my displayed image for a good print (brightness and 
contrast), then apply a curve, the printed image is much too light.  
I can correct this by darkening the image on the screen till I get a 
good print. The problem is if I have to make corrections to the image 
the shadows are black. I then have to start all over lighten to fix 
then darken to print.
Now I have set my monitor using a grayscale to adjust brightness and 
contrast to get a good print. I have to set monitor very very bright 
to get a good grayscale image and print.

I didn't have this problem with my 1270.  I am not sure if their is a 
way to correct this.
I hope this makes sense
