Have a look at this:

That's what output with black + light black looks like. The print
quality itself is excellent, but the tone is very brown. Everybody
assumes that the light black is neutral, but that is not so. It's a
little silly actually, if Epson had made both the blacks completely
neutral and included this printing mode directly in the driver there
would be a lot of happy 2200 owners out there getting great BW prints
right now.

I can reccommend you at least try iProof PowerRIP before deciding to
go for ImagePrint. I get great BW prints without metamerism from it.
They don't directly support BW printing, and don't do custom profiles,
but it's also half the price of ImagePrint.

There's a free demo here:
