Digital BW, The Print

I would like to print decent black and white photos. I know I will 
need to do this with a dedicated BW printer. I plan to purchase an 
Epson 1280 for this, because I can at least print Black Only with it. 
I have a Canon 9000 now and it makes really great color but not very 
good black and white. They have a color tint depending on the paper. 
I usually use Red River paper. I like the Canon for ease of refilling 
ink cartridges. I can do that without taking them out of the printer.

I use Paint Shop Pro, and Qimage.

What ink would be the easiest - just stick in cartridges and print 
decent black and white prints. I also want to refill my ink 
cartridges.

I have many hundreds of old black/white negatives from a long time 
ago I would like to print. They don't have to be museum quality and 
they don't have to last for a hundred years. I have maybe a year to 
enjoy them. I don't want to spend my remaining time being a techno 
about this, I just want to make decent black and white prints from my 
negatives, not somthing with a greenish tint like I get now with my 
color printer.

What will I get the best results from, with the least amount of time 
and effort put into it?  Lyson Quad Black, MIS, what??

Appreciate your advice.

Thanks -  John
