I have done it with the 3Ks MK and PK on a 4800. MK is quite warm, acceptable on EEM but HPR seems to be favored by viewers. PK is very, very acceptable on Premium Semi Mat (to me) although warm too and a disaster on Premium Glossy for me. I have not yet tested other papers I have (VFA, SemiGloss, Moab, USFA my favorite for color). All were printed using QTR. As compared to Piezo iQuad, though the rendering is different, I'm comfortable with the 3Ks, but note I'm not bothered by the hue, which might be very different for other users. This will also depend on paper choice.
