Have you tried using the Curve Creator to look at the two curves in
question? The curve for Premium semigloss has ink limit of 12 and 13 for LC
and LM respectively. The corresponding limits for Permajet Oyster are 29 and
30. The LC/LM are used to cool the warmth of the LK. Perhaps there are not
enough of those inks in the PSG cool curves for your (or others') taste. You
could try modifying the PSG curve to suit your taste.
