QTR-Quadtone RIP

>
> Hi Everybody, I was wondering if you can help me. I really like this rip and it would be great if I can use it for my application. Actually I need to print white ink on dark paper. I have Epson 2200 with 7 cartridges. Basically I need CMYK and in the rest of them I can put white ink. Is there any way that I can control from which cartridge I can print or if I can use at least light black to put white ink and do printing just from this cartridge. I would really appreciate your help with this issue.

  The QTR part is simple enough indeed. But does white inkjet ink actually exist? I would be interested as well.

Do you have a link? I did some google searches and found of course plenty references to printing with white ink (done so myself with fine art screen, litho and intaglio printing). But I did not found solid white inkjet inks compatible with consumer inkjet printers. I would be concerned about clogging as to my knowledge solid white inks usually are quite heavily loaded with pigments.
