It's actually easy to do with Paul's curves and selections. You don't run
the paper through the printer twice so registraton isn't a factor in the
process. You make a selection, apply a curve to it, invert the selection,
apply a different curve to the remainder of the image, then print. It's been
quite a while since I've used MIS inks and done this so hopefully I haven't
left out a step or two but I know it was easy to do and I didn't have to run
the paper through the printer twice.

That would require perfect registration and not very practical on an inkjet
printer but I
suppose possible.
