Just a dumb question - why aren't you using the NanoChromes as a set? 
What advantage do you see in using the K3s for the color inks? Seems 
like you must be giving up some gamut width, not to mention the fact 
that the NanoChrome K is the correct color to work with the rest of the 
NanoChromes.

So I'm lost. What are you trying to accomplish by mixing the inksets?
