The LK made from the PB is actually 15%, so the LLK would be only 5% PB

Actually I idid: the LLK I made from the 116 grey ink (30%).

I also prefer semigloss/luster/pearl/satin papers, but some really prefer glossy paper and pigment ink is suboptimal for those of papers but works greaat on semigloss/luster/pearl/satin papers.

Yes you are right: but the first tests gives me a much better gloss on all the glossy papers I have tested. However on pearl/satin papers I prefer pigment inks, whereas dye does not give me the extra whow effect like glossy paper + dye does.

I have 3 SC-P800 printers, but dye ink is superior for high gloss papers, so I made of of my SC-P800 printer a dye ink printer version. The others are pigment.

Today I had the time to refill a set of refillable auto reset cartridges with original Epson Claria HD ink extracted from ecotank ink from bottled 106 (CMYK) and 114 (G). These inks are proven to be very fade resistance. To obtain the light versions the CMG inks are diluted with my Clear Ink...

I did just calculate twice with the same scanning results on without the -nI option (old) and the new including the -nI option.

I suggest definitely the Colormunki Photo: you can use ArgyllCMS to create even more accurate profiles.

Why not change the text into bitmap and inverse the colour so the white background becomes black and the letters to be printed into white. Print this bitmap on a piece of paper so the whole area is black and the letters are just the white colour of the paper. Cut out this piece of black printed...

could you upload a picture to better determine what the problem is ?
