Epson 1280 vs 2000P for B&W printing

  I have printing with a 2000p using Epson carts for two years now, but B&W 
prints with a neutral tone is an increasingly important need. So does any one 
out there have any suggestions.  

   Any recommendation about Epson 1280 vs 2000P for B&W printing.  I am 
considering converting a refurbished Epson Printer to a B&W machine. The prices for 
the 2000P on E-bay are around $200 and 1280 runs about $299. Which of these 
do the group think might be a long term solution? 
  

What about whether to use cartridges or convert one or the other to a B&W CIS?

And for the last can of worms, any recommends on B&W ink set To be able to 
create tones would be nice but consistency neutral tones and ease of use would 
be more important than color tints.
