To bet the best possible results with the 2100/2200 you will need to 
use either the QuadToneRIP or Ink Jet Control/Open Printmaker to drive 
the individual channels.  This will allow you to partition the hilights 
with only the light gray ink...and bring in the light black later...but 
you will need to use the 2.0 version of the QuadtoneRIP to do this.

I know this could easily be done with the 2200 and IJC/OPM, but I'm 
waiting for empty 2200 chips to do it.
