P3D printing anaglyphs?

Hi, All-

All this talk about anaglyphs recently, and more than a little inspiration
from Boris Starosta's web site, has nudged me to try my hand at creating
phantograms.  My experiments have been phantastic- on the computer screen,
at least.  Imagine my dismay, then, when I learned that the $20,000 color
ink-jet plotter which I have access to through my school cannot print the
RGB colors accurately, due to the (previously mentioned by others) CMYK
problem.  Is there some magic combination of CMYK that will approximate RGB,
and let me view my phantogram the way it's meant to viewed? Or am I doomed
to kneeling under my computer table and craning my neck to get the proper
perspective from my computer screen?

Thanks!
