Digital BW, The Print

The R200 prints up to 2880 and doesn't switch dpi like your other 
printer...prints excellent B/O using the MIS Eboni black ink, and a 
refurb only costs $75 w/free shipping from epson.com. You can then 
sell the oem ink carts on ebay for $40-50, and buy the blank carts 
and bulk pigment ink from MIS. But don't run dye inks through the 
printer and then switch to pigments; you might end up with clogging; 
rather run only pigment inks.... I've had nothing but fine results 
with the R200, have sold several prints from it, had many positive 
compliments on the B/O prints, and only one brief clog after not 
running it for 2 weeks on the Y nozzle.
