Basically quadtone a greyscale image in PS, convert to sRGB, print as RGB.

I started out using the quadtones from Ken Lee but keep adjusting them 
slightly. http://www.kenleegallery.com/html/tech/bronzeOld.htm
Curve tweaks are usually necessary as they add density, especially in the 
shadows. Lately I've been selectively blending the quadtoned layer with a 
greyscale or tinted layer, to adjust the strength and extent of the effect 
more controllably.
