The 7800 profile used a K ink limit of 75.  I do not mix in lighter ink at the 100% spot.  With Eboni it almost always lowers the dmax.  (It also causes too much bleed.)

The 1400 black only has an ink limit of 45.  By the way, with Eboni black only the change in Lab B from paper white to max. Lab B is only 0.7.  That is, it's almost totally neutral.
