Digital BW, The Print

I believe I have just come to the realization that unless  Color Correction Partitioned Curves are applied, a six color printer is going to print a grey scale ( in RGB space ) with only 3 fixed 'shades' of ink with the stock Epson Driver : 

1) Black ( from ~ 80% grey up)
2) C M Y ( ~ 50% grey up )
3) PC,PM,Y ( 0% to 50% grey)

The Epson driver is going to blend the appropriate Cs and Ms and Y to create a balanced Grey tone. The droplet size will vary, the ratios remain fixed.
In order to optimize the inks, a pseudo color image must be created to force the darker shades to be used at the deeper color end of the overall scale or perhaps more importantly that the lighter shades be used for the whiter tones to reduce the appearance of droplet visibility ...
