If I were you I would look into a printer that uses grey ink.
Depending on what you want to spend, this could mean either a $100-300
HP that takes the 100/101 Grey tanks, or a very expensive Epson (2200,
I think) . There are also aftermarket grey ink sets for the lower end
Epsons, such as the R200/220, that have the capability to do a wide
range of greyscale printing. They require special color profiles to
work properly. You may want to look into something like this.
