This appears to be what I have been after. However, as I don't quite yet "speak the language", can you please translate this into ignorantese?

What inks do I need to buy and  from whom, what slots do they go in? Where can I get the profiles, etc., I need to use this?
Isn't PK a glossy black ink? I want to print on matte papers. Will this not work?

Also, on you web page: http://www.paulroark.com/BW-Info/
You show a very brown tone print, what I am after, but then seem to say that this is only possible on glossy papers? Is that correct? In addition, I do not find mention of any warm tone LK ink set on the MIS site. Do they not package this ink set?

TIA
