Well, what I learned about the Wasatch softrip kept me from buying 
it. When I contacted them, they said it could not change the point 
where the light ink mixes with the full ink, and that you could not 
chage how much light ink was used to mix with the full ink. And also 
that you could not take a 6 (or more) ink printer, and change the 
configuration to make something like a multi grey plus CMY inkset. 
They said it had something to do with the way the dither was 
designed. What this means is that you are limited to inks that offer 
a similar performance to the OEM inks for that printer.

This was of course the official statement from the manufacturer, so 
there might be hacks that can be performed to make it different.

Unfortunately, there are few choices for a RIP for the 2200, and the 
few that there are do not offer great flexibility. You can try the 
RIP from iproofsystems and see if it does what you need.
