More fundamentally: 8 stops & N-4? Really? Under normal circumstances you'd probably be looking for a CI in the mid-low 0.5 range - N-1 range in other words, not that it'd be unprintable at N on a softer grade.
Microcontrast enhancement is something more easily effected by the use of register masks.
