OK.  Thanks.

All of the files are currently in a grey gamma 2.2.  I assume the  
process to go throught is to 'convert to profile' to the QTR grey lab  
and then when printing to use the qtr grey matte a the print space  
( with black point compression ? ).

That has produced better but not perfect results.

Maybe I just need to bite the bullet and buy an eye one and make icc  
profiles.  I have one question about the eye-one products.  I assume  
that all I need to make the B&W icc profiles is the measuring  
device.  Is this true or do I need to purchase one of the Eye-One  
packages ( design, photo, proof etc )?
