Digital BW, The Print

I convert to LAB gray as a 'proofing' (more or less) ala Roy's instructions--just as I would do to check tonality, contrast, etc. when I do view/proof with a paper profile for a PS print.  I adjust contrast, etc. if needed at this stage--and then save as my 'master'--which I can then print a matte or semigloss from using the curve for each of those papers.  My 2 prints (PS/QTR) are difficult to tell apart except for the metamerism.

I included the 2 quotes--that you would be happy if the print came out like your PS print--but you are saying that it doesn't.  Perhaps someone else can come up with a better answer, but all I know is that both of mine are very close to my calibrated monitor's image (or as close as it can from illuminated to paper).

  sm. Without that
  phenomenon I'd be very happy with the print.

  But in anycase, yeah, the PS print is equal to the on-screen result
  but with metamerism.
