I used the above method, with a 21 step curve, outlined by Paul.  I
then used several B&W 
prints (on EEM) images to do my final tweaking of the 21 step curve. 
I found it especially 
useful for above the 80-100 steps range of blacks.  It is not perfect,
but pretty close for 
most images that I print.
