Digital BW, The Print

I have the eboni black. On the roark website, he very clearly says that 
the eboni black works with glossy and semi glos papers with his curves. 
He actually has curves written specifically for eboni black, and ilford 
smooth pearl, and eboni with ilford smooth gloss. Nowhere on the site 
does it say that the smooth pearl will look like it has been sprinkled 
with glitter, and if you hold it just right right you can get a very 
cool "negative film effect" on the smooth gloss. Also, when using his 
neutral curve, the dot size is VERY much bigger than simply running 
black only with the regular epson ink. WHAT?........I really dont want 
to have to make all my prints on matte paper. Everytime I show them to 
someone they say something about how xerox has come a LONG way, 
etc.....Does the 2200 have the real truth-be-told ability to print an 
archival pearl finish print that does not glitter? if so, then it seems 
that the 1280 with pigment inks should be able to also. Any tips on a 
non-matte paper that works with these? I mean really actually works 
like the real epson inks?
