Do yourself a favour ... go to http://www.harrington.com , scroll down to the bottom and follow the link for QuadTone RIP. Download the software, run the installer and check out the b/w results you get by using it with the 2200 and standard Ultrachrome inks. Then pay for it if you use it, a whopping 50 USD. I've only tested it on a borrowed 2200 and have been able to compare with MIS Carbon inks on another printer. QTR is very, very nice. No hassle with other inks, you can print both color and black and white on the same printer with beautiful results in both cases.
