This should not be needed with the R220. Google says it has 90 nozzles for  
each color.
The c84 has 180 nozzles for black, and 59 nozzles for color, so that's why.
I think one of volkan's printers uses around 90 nozzles too, check..

BTW the 180 nozzles must make it so fast in the text mode. I mean it can  
shoot out a page with really only a few passes of the head.
I know i said this before, but i'm just so amazed by it because the last  
inkjet i used was a HP deskjet 550C.
Also, i was quite amazed when i noticed that it'll do a nozzle check  
without any movement of the paper. Not about the fact that it makes the  
check that way, that makes sense if you think about it, but about the  
one-inch long row of nozzles needed to create such a thing... Quite  
something if you are used to 16 nozzles....
