Sorry, I mean 'curve' when I say 'profile'. People sort of get confused no matter which terms we use. Some people expect something called a 'curve' to be a photoshop curve while others expect a 'profile' to mean an ICC-profile only.
All the Epson black inks are warm, but the PK particularly so. The Epson MK ink isn't as warm so this tends to be less of a problem with matte curves. Like I said, I think the problem can be fixed by creating new curves for QTR using the latest version fo Quadprofile where neutralizing the black with other inks is supported.
The MIS UT7 inkset is a dedicated grayscale inkset with toner inks that allow you to make prints ranging from cool neutral to strong sepia.
MIS-PKN is a Photo black ink designed to be neutral in tone and to give great DMAX on glossy and luster papers:
The MIS Gloss Optimizer is basically a coating filled in a catridge. It's used to eliminate bronzing and can be found here:
To eliminate bronzing without switching inksets you can try to spray with PremierArt Print Shield. You can find it on this page:

If the Epson PK ink is warm, that may explain the problem. I've just
purchased the Epson 2100, getting good colour results on Ilford Luster
paper and have just invested in a couple of full sets of Epson inks, so
i'm loathe to switch inks at this stage.
I'd be interested to learn more about the UT7 / MIS-PKN inks etc.. - I'm
afraid those terms mean nothing to me!!
I'm confused to your references to profiles. I see no reference in QTR
GUI to profiles, only to curves - even if had a new profile, I wouldn't
know what to do with it!! I use the appropriate printer profile in
QImage for colour printing which as I say, gives good results.
