If you do decide to pursue this be well advised that you will need to flush
out absolutely every last bit of the pigmented ink before putting in the
regular dye inks. Mixing the two can cause big problems! Or just avoid the
whole thing, do as Andrew suggests and use the 2000P as a doorstop or
flower bed and get yourself a 2200 or a 1280!
