QTR-Quadtone RIP

With respect, again, to the 1 pt text example, would QTR together with
MIS UT7 or UT-3D B&W inksets produce similar results/performance with
the 1 pt text as it does with the Piezography K7 inks?  Or is it
something particular about how QTR is set up with the Piezography K7
inks that can't be duplicated with another B&W inkset?
