This is not my forte, but I'm guessing that
the PJ Oyster is a very differently toned paper from the luster and semigloss
(which are 'warm' toned--they don't seem so, but compare them to EEM or one of
the 'whiter' papers) and the curve that was created for it took that into
account--or maybe its the reverse of that so that the 'warmer' tone of it made
the curve creator make it even cooler. The paper tone has a LOT to do with
this.

After reading your reply to Andy's post, I thought I'd try the same
experiment with my 2200. I printed a b&w image on epson semi-gloss
using the UC-pk Permajet Oyster cool curve and....you're right....no
hint of brown, a very neutral print indeed. A bit of bronzing but
nothing too serious. Which begs the question about the QTR....why do
my prints turn out brown using the semi-gloss curve but print out
quite beautifully in fact with the...what's it called again?...the
Permajet Oyster curve? I just don't understand this.
