Not able to access NK7 curves with QTR on Epson R800 using PS CS2 on OS X 10.4.3

Printer QuadR800-NK7 is installed and accessible in print dialog. However none of the
print profiles show up in print dialog even though I can find them at proper location:

The following message appears when running the install for the NK7 printer/profiles:
Installing QuadToneRIP Curves Printer QuadR800-NK7
Curve NK7-2880-BradfordBCoolMatte
Inks mismatch: PPD has MK,C,M,Y,R,B,PK,GL and Quad has K,C,M,Y,LC,LM,LK
with the same error message for each profile.
When I read the installed profiles with view in the terminal or TextEdit form the download,
everything is the same. The comments in the profiles reference the K,C,M,Y,LC,LM,LK inks
which match the R2400 set. The printer uses the MK,C,M,Y,R,B,PK,GL set for the R800.
I am lost as to how to proceed to use the NK7 ink set with my Epson R800.
QTR works great with the QuadR800 installation.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
