Steve is right, Black Only is worth a try because it's very easy and
inexpensive and you aren't committing to anything.  You can try other
things at any time.  If you use Eboni black ink (sold by MIS) you'll
get even better looking results than with the Epson ink (cooler color
tone for one thing).  There is more information about this at the web
link below.  It's a great way to get started and the 2200 is a good
choice.  It will produce excellent results.

Clayton
