Subject: [Digital BW] neutral color shift
 
[snip]

When the problem starts, though, my grays shift radically, all of a 
sudden becoming cyanish-green. (And of course, all my work 
grinds to a halt.) Nozzle checks look fine. All other colors are fine 
and black dithered to gray is fine--the problem is restricted to 
grays and near-neutrals printed with color inks.

Very annoying behaviour.
Sounds like the light magenta stops firing suddenly.  I have a 2000P
with Gen5 CIS inks where occasionally the light magenta just stops.
Print a horizontal gray gradient immediately after aborting the job, and
you will see what is happening. The medium to lighter grey tones are
made up of color mostly, not dithered black.
