RE: [Digital BW] Pure black & white or CMYK Black & White?

  Black only is not you only option, especially with the R200.  MIS sells a set of inks (design by Paul Roark) that are all black and light black.  These work extremely well.  Also, you can buy these carts prefilled as well as being able to buy bulk inks to refill the MIS carts.  In addition to this, it is quite easy to switch between the all blak ink set and the color inks.  I have an R220 (in addition to my 9600) and have purchased the MIS all black inks as well as the MIS Pro color inks to use in the R220 and 9600.  The veristility and economy of this set up (using the bulk inks to refill) is just great.
  Something else to consider.

The K ink in the stock set is a bluish-green in color. The people who
do Black Only (BO) printing almost universally use Eboni (MIS) with
matte papers. MIS sells carts for the R200.

Details about BO printing can be found at the link below.

Clayton
