Digital BW, The Print

Many thanks for the informative replies to my question.  Your 
responses lead me to a second question (or maybe another way of 
formulating the first): since Colorbyte provides free profiles for 
papers to ImagePrint customers, does it make any sense for me to 
invest in custom profiling software (and a flatbed scanner, neither 
of which I own now)?  I also don't own a densitometer, if that 
matters.  I intend to print both color and b&w on my 2200 using a 
variety of papers.

Thanks,
Dan
