I might back the LLK and LK off a bit for Epson driver printing. To reduce the amount of mixing, you might just use the LC & C dilutions again in the LLK and LK. Because they'll be in a different partition than the "color" inks, the cross-overs will mix it up sufficiently -- I think.
The Epson driver is a "black box" that, until you try to profile a specific ink arrangement, particularly where an LK is involved, it's hard to say if the deep shadow cross-overs will be appropriate. Watch for flat spots or other weirdness in those deep shadows.
Let us know how it works.

Oops. Sorry. The formatting was lost. I guess tabs are stripped out.
Let me try it with spaces…
Glossy VT Eboni VT
LM = 6% PK 6% MKM = 18% PK 18% MKLC = 9% PK 9% MKC = 30% PK 30% MKLLK = 15% PK 6% MKLK = 50% PK 18% MKK=100%PK/MK 100% MK

… use an ink placement similar to the 3880 Eboni VT, but with gloss carbons & base. It will be simpler for Epson driver printing.
Am I correct that I should use the dilutions suggested in the above-referenced 7800 article in footnote #9?
That would require changes to LLK and LK.
For other readers, here is my summary of your recommendations:
Glossy VT Eboni VT
LM = 6% PK 6% MKM = 18% PK 18% MKLC = 9% PK 9% MKC = 30% PK 30% MKLLK = 15% PK 6% MKLK = 50% PK 18% MKK=100%PK/MK 100% MK
Yellow position is the same Blue-Cyan-base mix for both versions.
Thank you!Myron
