Digital BW, The Print

Andre,

I'm not sure what you meant by "trying to consistently match", but If 
you just want icc profiles for soft-proofing your printed output then 
that can be done.  Roy Harrington has a description of the method and 
the files needed for making the profiles on his QTR website:
