Richest Black tone in RC paper

I think this question should be in the printing forum. I have wondered the same question myself since many of the images in good quality photography books are richer (and blacker) than most prints I have seen in person. As far as I know this can be acheived by the publisher adding more ink during the printing process. There are also paper developers and additives, such as 'Amidol' that apparently increase the density of the dark areas of a print. Someone asked this same question in the printing forum and Edwals Ultra Black was suggested.
