I use the Eboni with the regular Epson color and light black
cartridges. On BO prints the 2200 only uses the black (eboni) cartridge.

I've never had a clog with this ink, but I do keep a room humidifier
in my printer/computer room and keep the room between 40 and 47
percent humidity during the dry winter months.

You can try Red River paper sample pack by going to 
http://www.redrivercatalog.com/samples/2200.htm

it is only 7.99 and you get several sheets of very usable paper to try.

When the UT7 inkset comes out, I will be ordering it from MIS and
giving it a shot with Paul Roark's curves. I think that really one of
the great things about the 2200 is that it is designed to work with
pigmented inks and seems a lot less prone to clogging. Or maybe that's
just due to my humidifier!! ;-)
