Reprographer offering "same price" for A/E/C plan prints, black & white OR color

When I first heard that HP would be coming out with a “wide-format” system that would be really, really fast, handle high-volumes of output, and generate both black & white AND color prints at the same speed-of-output…. and that the cost to produce A/E/C prints, whether black & white or color would be close to the same cost, I predicted that some reprographers would, not long after HP PW XL systems began shipping, decide to offer b/w plan printing and color plan printing at the same price rate.

Here’s a printer (I’ll refer to them as a “reprographer”, since they do offer A/E/C print services) who advertises on its web-site that it offers b/w or color plan printing “at the same price”.  (There are exceptions, that’s the small print.)
