I'm not sure if anyone is making replacement cartridges fo the 2200 yet. Lyson I think have a CIS for the 2200.

If you going to dedicate a printer to black and white and want to go the third party ink route, you might be better off getting a 1290 and running third party ink through that. I will work out cheaper.
