Sorry, I wasn't clear on that in my post... I'm using the MIS Ultratone
BW inkset with Eboni Black for all positions, and in addition to that
I've changed the cyan and photo cyan positions. So there's no
Ultrachromes in my printer.

Haven't been able to get reliably good results on any glossy paper yet.
Everytime I try I end up with excessive bronzing, mottling and wheel
tracks on the prints... There must have been something wrong with the
cartridge I filled with MIS Photo black, because I also got really low
D-max on all the papers I tried it with.

I'll probably get around to that again some day...
