Digital BW, The Print

I developed two color curves for use with UT-14 on glossy and satin papers. I've not used Museo Silver Rag, but the two curves work very well on Red River Arctic Polar Gloss, Ultrapro Satin and Polar Pearl Metallic. I think they will work on just about any glossy paper, though you may need to put a custom ICC with them. I've used them with custom ICCs and Gamma 2.2 printer control setting successfully. You can get copies of the curve .acv files at:

http://sdrv.ms/18L6GoZ (neutral) and http://sdrv.ms/11p4e5F (warm)

These will at least give you a defect-free surface and probably good tone. Black density and shading may require further work with an ICC or levels adjustment.
