Firstly - if you haven't already got a custom profile, get one. From whoever. Printing without one is just a waste of time. You may think your prints are as good as they can get, but undoubtedly their not. Secondly - if you hate the 2100 that much, buy an Epson 1160 or the Canon S9000 (or its new upgrade). Still buy a custom profile for it though. If you cannot stomach buying the custom profile, then get yourself an Eye-One kit and make your own. Expensive investment, sure, but worth every single penny.
