Yes, Picture Window Pro will work fine with these printers.  Both can be
controlled with the settings and sliders in the printer driver.  With the
R220 one of the additional approaches I am trying is to use ICCs to further
match the monitor and print.  For this approach, PWP does not work;
Photoshop or Photoshop Elements is needed.  However, the R220 driver by
itself is very close.  

Comparing the C86 and R220, the C86 is a bit simpler just because it has
fewer inks.  It also has a slightly better glossy print dmax.  The R220,
with those extra inks, is smoother.  It also has a better matte paper dmax
than the C86.  You can get to my Readme files on the two printers from my
index at http://home1.gte.net/res09aij/index.htm.

Hope this helps.
