No, Christopher, as I said, it's not using the blacks, it's just using the black. When you do what you suggest it only uses its blackest black (matte black or photo black, depending on what cartridge is installed). The result is a noticable dot pattern, although it's no worse than the halftone pattern in a decent fine art coffee table photography book. What the 2100/2200 needs is a way to use all its blacks, i.e., the dark black AND the light black cartridge, and not any of the colors. This would produce very neutral prints with minimal metamerism, but a less obvious dot pattern than the darkest cartridge alone.
