Roland XF-640 8 color mode?

[StephenOrange]

Yo!
I have a XF-640 and I'm wondering if the following is possible (I think not, but maybe there's a custom driver out there) - Can I setup the XF to run in 8 color mode like the RF-640? IE: CMYK Lc Lm Orange Green
There's nothing specifically mentioned in any of the manuals, but on Roland's support page for the model they have PDFs on how to print with white and metallic, which is a far more complicated system given the need to circulate the white the whole time and the machine doesn't have the hardware for it. The documents on the support page could also be there in error.

Perhaps a modified firmware version of the RF or XF model so it enables 8 color for the XF?

I've gone through the service notes an no mention. Is this gonna cost me to get the solution from you, or do I need to dress up in something provocative and seduce the answer out of you LOL ! We're getting in another XF-640 and I'm seriously considering converting the one to a hexachrome edition, even if it is slower, so your future input, even at a charge, would be appreciated.
