Digital BW, The Print

So has anyone had a chance yet to check this out yet? I don't want to 
start any rumors, but the source says that Epson did confirm it on 
both the 7600 and 9600 and has no solution other than changing paper 
coating/weight.

I'm thinking of buying a 2200 but not if it has the same problem, 
which no one has been able to confirm yet. And esp. as it affects 
Photorag.

It would look really ugly to have a section of 100%k on a print that 
had the criss crossed grid pattern described in the link to the 
thread...
