I'm the one who wrote the windows version of the QuadProfile program. With the previous version of Quadprofile it was impossible to control the tone of the black ink. You could only neutralize the Light Black using light cyan and light magenta inks.
Since 2.2 it's been possible to also neutralize the black ink using cyan and magenta, but I don't think anybody has taken advantage of this feature yet and created profiles which are completely neutral in the shadows. The Epson PK ink is very warm, and I think any profile created with the earlier version would be warm at least in the shadows.
I could help you create a new profile, but I use the MIS 7600 Ultrachrome replacement inks in my 2100 and their PK responds differently than the Epson one. Any profile I create with this inkset may not work for you. I could still make an attempt of course...
Both issues can be solved by using the UT7 inkset with MIS-PKN ink and Gloss Optimizer. This will give you totally neutral prints with no bronzing on luster papers. I have profiles for Epson Premium Semigloss and Ilford Smooth Pearl.

I guess my main problem (other than bronzing which by all accounts is something I have to live with on Luster paper), is that the prints arent neutral, they are slightly too warm, even using the UCpk-EPremSemiGloss-cool curves, which is why my original question made a request for some improved curves. Ive still to experiment with some other built-in curves or a combination of None and the UCpk-EPremSemiGloss-cool.
