Shouldn't be too much of an issue when using one of the RIPs (QTR or 
StudioPrint), just need to leave out the darkest gray, and stretch the 
full black a bit more, maybe a longer overlap between black and the 
other shades. It's the lightest inks that will make the biggest 
difference in the quality.

And normally those early printers were pretty bullit proof (notice the 
word normally). As long as parts are available, there doesn't seem to 
be a compelling reason to get rid of them (just repurpose them). The 
9000/9500 is a tank, but it is a bit slow (speed kills?).
