Martin,
I believe that on the 2200 there is no "Photo Black Mode".  If one selects black 
ink printing for a photographic image the driver issues a warning that this 
option is only recommended for text and line art.  I could not find any driver 
setting that allowed use of the black and light black together, without the color 
inks.  The only time that both the black (Photo Black or Matte Black, 
depending on which is installed) and Light Black are used together is in full 
color mode.
