Another popular approach, and one of the easiest to use and least
expensive, is the Black Only technique.  It's a great way to get
started and doesn't involve committing to a particular system.  You
are free to experiment with other methods and can always come back to
it any time.  Your 2200 will do an excellent job (that's what I use).
 There is information about it along with a general overview of BW
digital printing at the link below.

Clayton
