I thought I might share with you the results of my efforts to get a decent B/W print from my 2200. I have used the Grey Balancer and Monaco to profile and to say that I am pleased with the result is an understatement. I have printed out the improved 21 Step grey scale. The scale looks perfectly uniform thoughout. I can easily see density variation up to the 97% point. The tone is just about dead neutral. Please bare in mind that I am using the photo black and Heavy Weight Matte, I'm waiting delivery of Archival Matte and Matte Black ink. The scale is better than any I have printed on my 3000 or my last 1160. I might just sell the both of them! One point I noticed about the Ultrachrome inks is that they take quite a while to "set". I noticed color differences for almost 24 hrs. I know have a dual purpose printer so I'm dead chuffed to say the least... I only wish I could afford a 7600! Barry
