Digital BW, The Print

Jerry,

If you are dedicating the new printer for b/w, the 1280 is a better 
choice.  It is supposed to be faster than the 2000P.  There is no 
shortage of pigmented b/w inks you can get.  The only advantage the 
2000P would have (IMO) is being able to print pigmented (light fast) 
b/w prints with color inks........but then it is difficult to get 
prints without color casts.  The 2000P inks are also notoriously 
prone to metamerism.

Good luck.
