In a very general way, I suppose, but Paul Roarke's curves work with the
Epson driver. 

Generations QuadBlack inks use a RIP to separate a monochrome image into
six ink channels under control of partitioning curves; I am developing
these for Media Street, which will provide the software and the curves
to ink customers.

What is the component of these quad inks? How do you test for permanence? What 
percentage are carbon pigment and what percentage are other pigments or dyes? Is 
metamerism an issue with them?
