Probably quite acceptable for the casual BW printer and not quite acceptable 
for the purist.  I compared a favorite image today printed on both the 2200 and 
my 1270 with MIS VM.  The VM neutral/warm is probably the closest 
comparison for overall tone.  Side by side I prefer the VM print because of the 
deeper blacks, but I still have to wait to get my matte black ink for the 2200 for 
another comparison.
