If you look at the print head pattern the black ink is black and the 
grey ink is that warm light brown, so I assumed that my black only 
prints from the 2200 use both blacks, otherwise they wouldn't have that 
very warm tone.... plus the fact that it's denser to my eyes than black 
only from any other printer I have, doesn't that indicate more than one 
ink being used? The dots are far less visible than BOPrinting from my 
2000P.
