Robert,

Have you seen Dmax numbers for Eclipse Satine or Legion Photo Matte?

  Antonis found that photorag only got a 1.63 dmax with the ultrachromes
using
  the epson driver...incomparison to a 1.73 dmax for EAM.  Traditionally
there
  was the opposite pattern with photorag performing better.  1.63 is less
  black than MIS FS inks get with photorag (around 1.7).  The big mystery at
  this point is how somerset enhanced (or the new epson somerset velvet)
  performs...this may be the best hope for a good rag paper with the
  ultrachromes.
