Digital BW, The Print

I read your article on BO method in your website. I am not sure if i 
understand correctly that in BO method: 
1- One keeps color inks in the printer. However there is an option 
in epson 2200 and 12880 printers set-up to use only balck ink 
cartridge. When printing b&w photos, one uses this option so that 
the color inks are not used? 
  If this is the case, is it possible to use the epson´s own black 
ink and cartridge or one has to replace this with MIS ink and 
cartridge? 
Or perhaps in BO method, one 
2- removes the color inks and replace them all with balck only 
filled cartridges? 
   
Best regards, Ramin
