I'd do what I've done at least for now, which is put MIS eboni into my 2200
and print black only.

I've mostly lurked on the site and let me thank all of you for the
time,energy & advice you
so freely give.It's truly appreciated by those like me who might really
benefit from your
efforts. Thanks,thanks,thanks.

my dillema:

I print 95+% b&w. I have a 2200 w/OEM inks and use the Wilkerson
(Wilkinson?) profiles. I
consistently get a decided magenta cast and to estimate +green is
inconsistent and paper/
ink costly. I'm (as you can guess) very frustrated and reluctant to spend
another $500 for
RIP sw of the MIS or similar ink setup. Any advice to cure this situation
and encourage me
to keep the 2200 is certainly welcome.

possible (logical?) workarounds:

1) spend $200 (the price of a used 1280 that I'd be willing to spend) and
get Epson RIP
2) sell my 2200,get a 1280 and print BO
3) sell the 2200,get the 1280  and use Lyson Ink set

any other ideas?

your perspective on all this will be greatly appreciated. IE: what would
*you* do?

Thanks again,

Robert
