As Tyler said, QTR has all the control for any ink set. There aren't any existing profiles for the piezotone ink set. However, with a good measuring device such as an Eye-One it is quite easy to support anything you want. Ironically, the biggest issue with a 7 ink printer is what to do with so many inks. Piezo is only 4 inks. The septone system for example uses two independent gray sets with a common black. Others starting with piezo inks will custom mix different piezo set to get specific color tones. The other approach that appeals to me is have a basic gray quadtone, plus individual toner inks that you can software control the color tones giving what ever tones and split tones you like. This is the general idea I took with my 7500 -- 6 inks with 1 black, 3 grays, a cool toner and a sepia toner. With 7 inks you could just use light C,M,Y toners.
