Jim,

it may be that, in the end, the best setup for bw prints will be a 2200 with a CIS 
and UT / UG / PT whatever  bulk inks. By all testimonies so far, the 2200 
remains the best Epson desktop to date, and it is supported by all major 
contenders to the photo-printing throne, and runs faster than a 1280. With 7 
jets, you can have your 2 toners and your glossy/matt blacks and still have 3 
grays to play with.  Heads are designed for the UC inks, by far the most stable 
of pigments to date, which would also make them compatible with UTs,  
Piezotones etc.

.....what more could anyone ask for?    ....a 9600?
