Greg, and R. SHaffer,
Thanks for the advice. I'll digest this and print some new wedges tonight. R. Shaffer, I don't have an LK ink so from what I have just read the yellow sounds like the best substitution. The MK ink seems to adhere pretty well to the transparency film. I think I'll try the pure linear prints of MK, PK and Yellow and see what that looks like.
The min. for black is unfortunately about an hour, but that's what I have to work with and I have even seen some suggestions that longer exposures can have some benefits.
A calculus professor once told me that just beyond confusion is understanding, I can only hope this is true.
Cheers,
Reathel
I posted a QTR profile for the 1400 (it uses the same Claria ink set as the 1900) a while back. This might be a starting point for you:

The 1400 uses Claria (dye) ink; the R1900 uses Ultrachrome (pigment) ink.
I wouldn't expect these to behave at all alike.
FYI I had the MK and PK mixed up, the PK (photo black is the grainy ink).
My experience has been that matte black (MK) can be grainy; photo black (PK) has always produced smoother negatives for me.
