Thanks a lot, Paul.  I ordered a warm yellow and magenta cart and 
will see if this warms up the prints to my liking.  I've found that 
on glossy papers, the neutral set looks great.  Unfortunately, I 
don't really like the glossy papers (too open shadow areas for one 
thing) and am much happier with the mattes where the neutral looks 
bluish to my eyes.  The Eboni on Innova Smooth Cotton 315 is 
beautiful- I hope you get a chance to make UT-3D profiles for this 
paper at some point, and maybe even a UT-R2 silver rag profile.  I'd 
do it if I had a flatbed...
