Re. the Epson Artisan 1430 and Epson Stylus Photo 1400,
MIS has a set of empty carts.

MIS states, "Note: We Do Not Support Mixing OEM, Remanufactured, Empty, Or
Compatible Cartridges, As Chip Issues May Result From Not Matching Sets.
For This Reason We Only Offer These Empty Cartridges As A Complete Set."

I find that I can mix the MIS carts I have with OEM Claria carts in my
1400s, but I have never tested a 1430.  The disclaimer by MIS suggests a
mixed set may be a problem, or at the very minimum, you're on your own if
you do this.
