Hi Frank

I will be setting up my 220 next week.  I planned on setting it up with 
the new Neutral inkset that I will be getting from MIS.  Did you set up 
your 220 with the original color dye inks that came with the printer?  
Should I have any problems setting it up this way?  

Also, are you familiar with 'BO'(Black Only) printing with the 220.  
Have you done this with this printer?  If you have,  can you elaborate 
on how you would set up the printer to do this?

Thanks much

Mike
