Ernst,

I looked at a few of the 4000 matte profiles - in their text form - and it looks like there is 
no line to designate between "photo" or "matte" black...only "K" is listed.

I think Photo Black or Matte Black can only be chosen by the driver and not the profile with 
the 4000.

Here's a partial copy and paste of a 4000 Enhance Matte profile in text form (that's before 
it gets converted into a .quad profile) Notice only "K" and "LK" are available. No "PK" or 
"MK"...
