Digital BW, The Print

The easiest way is: buy a 1280 and go to Clayton Jones website about
Black Only printing http://www.cjcom.net/digiprnarts.htm   Read what
he has to say then try Black Only printing using the Epson inks. It
really works well with a 1280. 

later, buy MIS VM inks (www.inksupply.com) download Paul Roark's
workflow and curves from the MIS website. 

Key point: Do you know much about Photoshop? A basic working knowledge
is essential to being able to print black & white. 

Learning to print respectable b&w prints digitally is not hard. Once
you printer is set up and you have some comprehension of Photoshop,
you should have an acceptable print in an hour.

or a 2200 (and hope a more then duotone inkset comes out in the near
future), a 3000 (seems out of the question due to banding problems) or
a Canon S9000 (if thats the model supported, in hopes of being able to
more easly deal with clogging)?
