I've never seen them make that claim.  Where did you see it?   All 
their sample BW prints that they gave away promoting the 2200 had 
tons of metamerism!  And you can't say they were lying because right 
out of the box on Epson Enhanced Matte you could make a print every 
bit as good (i.e., bad) as their sample prints.
