Yes, but the blacks aren't quite rich or deep enough.

I DO have maximum blacks. (on screen) Even a solid square of black isn't
black enough (on paper) . Using Media Streets Dual sided matte paper,
and your profile, I am able to get so close I can taste it, but I still
need just a teeny bit more black to be 100% Satisfied. I am really
close, but just a little tiny bit more would do it.  For all practical
purposes, would you say the Luminos Silver inks and the Fotonic are
identical? Could it be possible that the Lumninos are just a tad more
brilliant, or have a deeper black than the fotonics?  They are so close!

You mentioned you were sending a Unitone profile to try. Is this coming
by mail, or should I download it?
