Digital BW, The Print

I had the exact same problem on my 2100 (XP SP1).  I have never got 
BO to work with the 2100 drivers, so the fact that you have at some 
stage in the past means that you're way ahead of me.  

There have been a number of posts in this group in the past to the 
effect that people have had to install the 2200 drivers in order to 
get BO to work on a 2100.  I did this and it worked for me.

Note however that if you install the 2200 drivers, the status 
monitor will not work, neither the 2100 version nor the 2200 
version.  Best option is probably to install the 2200 drivers (but 
not the 2200 status monitor), in addition to the 2100 drivers.  That 
way you use 2200 for BO and 2100 for everything else.

I have not tried the BO with the latest 2100 drivers (3.50?), so 
there is a chance that it will work with them, but personally I'd 
doubt it.

I prefer QTR.

that the printer is only laying down the black ink that it would if 
all the colours were being used  - so not much ink is being laid 
down at all - only the darkest 25% or so.
