Hello Claudio I have both smaller Epson (R220, R800, 2100) and HP Designjet 130 printers. I think that the Epsons are much better for B&W as the newer models have multiple grey inks and there are a number of aftermarket ink suppliers for them. However there are people who swear by the Designjet printers for both colour and black and white, the latter with a specific profile. My attempts at black and white printing with my Designjet have however been disappointing (to put it mildly) but perhaps my profiles are not good enough. David Whistance

I own a DJ130 and can confirm that it is NOT a printer for black and white. (Color on the other hand. ) -Richard _____
