I was looking at the C86 & MIS EZ inks, but...

I am now looking at the R200, with epson inks, and Roy Harrington's QTR.
This allows the R200 (or R210 in your case) to print with the black cart
only (or what ever you set it up to do). I'm in the UK, and haven't actually
done any proper B+W printing, but will be going down the R200 route.

Pass.
