No, there is the profile I mentioned and "UT-PK_warm" and "UT-PK_cool".

I mixed the two 50-50, then tried each separately. No dice. I looks like the toners are 
being put down in place of the 50% gray.

I tried the "UT-MK_neutral" on some Condor also--same deal. Blue toner where the 50% 
gray should be. I also tried "UT-MK_warm" and "UT-MK_cool" mixed 50-50, with the same 
results.

Not looking good...

I don't know what you mean by this. OPM isn't tricky by a long shot. The supplied profiles 
are excellent and get (slightly) better with linearization. After working with both software 
packages, I'd say at this point IJC/OPM is the simpler to get started with.
