go the ICC route. Just create a custom grayscale ICC built on top of the existing .quad file.
Then print using this ICC.

OK: I hate to be the dullest blade in the drawer, but here goes...
I'm using Piezography. Right now I create my image and print it thru PrintTool w/NCM. Seems OK to me, but if I can make it better. (I just got a shiny new i1 Photo Pro, so I want to play...)
Does "... create a custom grayscale ICC built on top of the existing .quad file" mean to print out a target thru a .quad file for a given paper, just as if I were printing a photo? Then measure that result into an .ICC profile?
If so, then will such a profile make use of all the K7 inks when I print? Exactly where do I choose to use that profile? In the PS dialog, or in the PT driver?
Doesn't an ICC profile run off to the Profile Connection Space, which is a color space? Are not the Piezography curves just curves (amounts of ink) and doesn't that completely bypass the PCS?
I feel like this 70 year old brain is beating around the edges of what's being said here. Just not wrapping my brain around how this works, out here in the real world, one step after another.
and then I get to "The MeasureTool issue is..." Now I'm really confused. I thought the Measure Tool wasn't involved in the creation of an ICC profile. Wouldn't that be used if I were trying to directly linearize the curves instead of generate a profile?
Likely someone is slapping their forehead right now, but if I don't ask, I won't learn...
Thanks for your patience.
