IMHO, ImagePrint may give you a great B&W print with a 2200 (or 7600/9600
for that matter) but metamerism will rear its ugly head in different
lighting situations and your 'neutral" B&W print will only be neutral in a
narrow range of lighting conditions.

I have been using ImagePrint for some time on a 2200.  I see 
essentially no metamerism when printing B&W. At 50,50 tinting, the 
image is slightly warm, but nearly neutral.  In fact I see more 
metamerism when printing B&W using PiezoTone Selenium Tone inks on 
my 1280...yes, there is some very slight metamerism, although it is 
not objectionable...with PiezoTone.  Metamerism is not an issue when 
printing B&W with ImagePrint.  This is because yellow ink is not 
used, and it is said to be the primary cause of the metamerism using 
Ultrachrome inks on the 2200.
