Digital BW, The Print

Good point!  But...I gather that in addition to wasting the black ink
that I don't want, it also wastes all of the other colors as well just
to change the blacks.  
And, I don't see Epson Photo black/paper listed anywhere.  Is that the
 name of a paper by someone else?
Thanks
