Performance (particularly printing speed), reliability, and ease of switching carts (no need for a dedicated inkset CIS) is much better with the 2200. With one additional light gray ink the 2200 would most likely surpass the 1280 for B&W print quality as well. I also don't particularly care to maintain and feed two printers and currently I'm quite pleased with the 2200 for both color and B&W.
