Hi Daniel,
I don't have experience with your machine, but the 2200 uses B&W inks for 
B&W prints, Although I suspect for some reason some colour ink filters in 
some how.

But we find B&W off with certain paper other than EPSON if we forget to 
click "black ink" and go with the coloured inks creating the black printing 
ink.

Generally I go with "Black matte ink" for matte papers and sometimes a 
slight contrast tweaking and they work very nicely without any cast.
