Helen,

Thank you and others for your replies.  I need to print both B/W as
well as color on my 2200. For B/W I anticipate using matte papers
only, for color both matt and Epson Premium Luster. 
I have access to Imageprint 5.6 which seems to be very versatile, but
I am not sure for B/W. I am thinking that QTR might be a better way to go.

Thanks

Barry
