Dan, I've not looked at your epl, but I would wonder whether you're not simply observing the inherent limitation of density and choma on this type of material with those inks. That likely dictated the prelimitation of those channels. A "pink" magenta sounds about right for a matte paper, as do a strong yellow (relatvely unaffected by the surface) and a pretty good black (below 20 L*) with matte black ink. A good indication is given by looking at the gamut plot of an RGB profile I saw for that printer on matte proofing paper--fits your description, and those limits were not imposed by your contone driver.
If you give us the actual solid lab values you've obtained I'm sure any number of us could tell you if they are normal and expected for such materials with this ink set.
