Digital BW, The Print

I'm going to ask a dumbie question here.  Having been a mono printer for 
years, but without using a toned inkset, I'd like to know what the 
alternatives are today with the newest printers.  I suppose I should add 
'reasonably priced' but one person's reasonable is another person's 'way out 
of range', so I guess its fairest to just ask for alternatives and leave the 
'reasonable' up to each individual.  I'm referencing David's post but 
changing the subject (knowing, as several of you say here, that he does have 
a dog in this fight LOL).

I know there are new folks on this forum--some I've sent here myself.  There 
are also those of us contemplating changing the ways we print and so would 
like to understand all the alternatives.  I do understand the limitations of 
using a fixed toneset.  I, for one, have been contemplating switching my 
soon to be replaced 2200 with the Piezography split tone K7 and/or mixed 
sets (I'm following the conversations here and other places about the 
possibilities).  However, though I know my new printer won't be supported 
immediately by all the alternatives, I'd appreciate knowing, for instance, 
what is available, what is highly recommended for the 4800.  (I use QTR at 
present--so know this is one alternative).

I know that long searches bring up a lot of this information, but it would 
be helpful to have some recommendations in one thread, easily accessible.

TIA for anyone's input.

<<<<To me this kind of decision is like choosing whether I'm going to eat
chocolate ice cream indefinately, or vanilla. Of maybe, if I only get one, I 
should
get Chocolate Swirl... The real answer is I want to determine the tint or
crosstint on an image by image basis, not in advance, for an indefinate 
period.
Unless you have a single, preferred tonality in advance, then installing a 
fixed
tone inkset (ANY fixed tone inkset) is a very limiting choice!
