Just to expand a little on Clayton's response:

Though the ABW mode does use colour inks, if you use a RIP like QTR or
IJC/OPM you have complete control over which inks are used, and in
what quantity. I am particularly fond of images made with just the PK,
LK and LLK inks. These give slightly warm images on most papers, but
not too warm, and the highlights are a lot smoother than BO images.
The R2400 with a B&W RIP as well as the Epson driver is a very
versatile printer.

Best,
Helen
