Re: New process, new ink, new printer?

It's when I read about your clog-free experiences with the 1400 series printers that I get envious. Is it possible there's some variance in quality from one printer to another? I could see that.
As for quality of carts... I've been using InkjetMall's carts, mainly for their chips. They are manually resettable (you have to use their inexpensive resetter), which I like. In fact a while back you asked me in this group what carts I was using. It was a thread having to do with printers not recognizing new carts and my success with IJM carts elicited a question from you as to where I got them... which made me feel pretty good!
Are you at liberty to mention where you get yours? Right about the time of that thread, MIS was having trouble filling orders and supplying carts that were compatible. Eventually I did get a set from them that were quite good so perhaps MIS is over that hump. I've also heard good things about Precision Colors carts, out of Toronto.
Finally I'm going to pay closer attention to my capping station's sealing edges. I must confess I've been giving them just a once over lightly.
I just pulled out three of my recent prints and propped them up in the living room. I must say they simply pop. I was using your Carbon 6 homebrew version of Eboni 6 and continue to use Premier Art 205 gsm paper. I'm very pleased.
