Don, 

Tom Zuber can do a much better job than I. His site is 
WWW.Zuberphotograhics.com  Basically it determines the minimum amount 
of ink that needs to be laid down to produce the darkeest visible 
black. For me it also lenthens the lower Zones tonal range and opens 
the shadow values to allow more detail to be seen without losing 
visible Dmax. 

Your friend in Photography,

Johnny
