I believe that imageprint and the piezotone inks are the best option out
there for BW printing at the moment.  The 2200 and Imageprint would be a
good option if you were committed to having only one printer or absolutely
need glossy/pearl BW output on a regular basis and were not concerned about
silver print longevity. There are definite weaknesses to the Ultrachrome
inks (price, longevity and hilight detail when compared to quad
options)...but I'm sure they will be the right solution for some
people...but I believe from what I've seen that they are only a solution
when paired with Imageprint.  That said, Imageprint is also the best
solution at this point for people using quad inks.  This is particularly
true if your are using the piezotones.
