The Epson 1430 and R2000 are nice printers, but neither has the gray inks required for optimum B&W.

The 1430 is a dye printer, and the R2000 uses pigment inks.  HP has certain papers that are optimized for one or the other, and that info is on their web site.

The Epson R3000 prints with the gray inks that you’d want to use for B&W, and it uses pigment inks that can be used on the widest variety of art papers.  Dye inks work very well on most glossy and luster papers, but many art papers lack coatings to work optimally with dyes.
