If you use Illustrator or CorelDraw X5 use RGB black (0,0,0) and switch it to cymk, it will give you a very nice black (75,68,67,90).

Once saved to the pallet you don't have to remember it any more.

RGB 0,0,0, and let the RIP convert to the densest black possible using the profile.

I use 100 100 100. Just have no make sure it will dry. Some materials I have to use a 60 40 70 100 to make sure it will dry.

I use "Rich Black" 70/40/20/100 it works best for all my printers

Going to depend printer, media and ink. You may find that 20C, 100K will work, you may need 40C 20M 20Y 100K. In general I like the Cyan higher than M and Y , but prefer just Cyan if thats all thats needed.
