Is that with OEM inks? If so, I'm not surprised, as the K3 inkset is known to be better for BW 
printing (and glossy/semi gloss papers) than the older inks in the 2200. Or are you running 
monochrome inks in the 2400?, in which case what inks are you using?

What I've been thinking is to use a monochrome inkset in the the 2200 for BW printing, and 
the OEM inks in the 2400 for both colour and toned monochrome work.
