RE: [Digital BW] MIS UT density

I consistently get about 1.7 with Eboni and PhotoRag.  1.34 is about what
the dark gray will be.  The Photo K is almost as weak.

Are you sure you have Eboni there?  

Print a dark gray 100% patch and see how it compares.  (Use the curves with
an RGB 100% patch and turn off 2 of the 3 inks by pulling their curves up to
a horizontal line at 255.)
