Epson offers the 1280 and that would be my choice. The 2200 and 2400 are great machines but the b&w output is no better than the 1280. Ink Supply dot com offers pigment inks and empty cartridges (without sponges) and a small gizmo which resets the Epson chip to full. Additionally, the 1280 makes bigger prints at a faster rate than the C86.
