If you have a copy of Ron Reeder's book look on p. 36 where he shows a print made with an ink separation page used as the negative. There is some slight UV blocking from the cyan, but relatively little compared even to LK. My opinion is that the blocking is so little it is just a waste of ink to use it since you would have to use it at about 80-90% to provide UV blocking comparable to the PK and Y at 25 and the LK at 50.

Not sure what is going on with your printer, but I have worked with dozens of Epson K3 printers and they all show about what you see in Ron's palladium print.

Not sure what you mean by inverting the ink separation page? You mean flip it, I assume?
