But the answer to the question is "yes"; and also that the
profile/settings
for Enhanced Matte will work well when using Heavyweight Matte paper.
IMHO, Heavyweight Matte prints
essentially the same as Enhanced Matte (which AFAIK is the very same
paper as the old Archival Matte).

Yes but you have to manually feed the paper a sheet at a time through the
back. The instruction manual tells you how to do this.

I don't have a 2200 but know that HWM is actually lighter than EEM. It
should feed normally. 
I also find it prints very close to EEM.

Not so! I think you're confusing Epson HWM with some other paper.

I was just basing my statement on the Epson 2200 instruction booklet, which
says to single feed "thick"  paper. I assumed from the name that Epson
Heavyweight Matte paper was a "thick" paper.  Apparently it isn't so I was
wrong. My apologies.

Enhanced Matte is the old Archival Matte. Epson renamed it, when they found it wasn't as "archival" as one would like. The inks are still fine after archival testing, but the paper itself yellows.

Heavyweight Matte is an entirely different paper. The coating works well for dye inkjets like 1270 or 1280, but its too absorbant for 2200 pigment inks. The ink is hidden in the coating and you end up with low DMAX.
