Just load the inks, choose a media setting that doesn't clog the shadows 
excessively, read the 225 patch color target (called High Quality Target), print 
the one page target, read the patches, then build the profile. If you want to 
open the shadows further, then use the advanced slider with a positive value in 
the shadow detail section. It takes the software longer to calculate a 
grayscale inkset's profile than a color inkset, so don't panic when it "freezes" in 
the calculation process, this is normal, it will come out of it once the 
calculations are complete. Once you have your profile for the UT-3D inks with that 
paper and printer, you can use it with the Photoshop Custom Proof setup option 
to adjust your (RGB format) image to tint it, if you aren't looking for 
neutral results.
