Digital BW, The Print

I am wondering if anyone out there might be in the know as to what grades of Carbon Black/Lamp Black are good starting points for building B&W inks for inkjet printing from scratch. I have an Epson Pro 4000 that I am currently using the UT7 ink set in, it does a decent job, but I know it could be better. I am thinking more and more about Carbon on Cotton, with multiple dilutions of black. Plus it seems like a do-able task and if for no other reason to say I did.

Thought anyone?

Thanks Larry Heath
