Gregory, In general I agree with you and have my first 1280 set up with a CIS and MIS VM inks. I wanted to try out the MIS FS, Neutral FS and Sepia-VM inks in my second 1280 so hand loading empty carts seemed like the way to go until I make up my mind which ink to stick in it. Once I do decide it will definately be with a CIS. Jim's advice on changing out the cartridge head portion of the CIS regularly is good advice though. When I started with the MIS VM and the CIS I got no clogging. Now 7 months latter I am getting an occasional clog and the frequency seems to be increasing.

Why are you going through the hassle of re-filling cartridges, and re-setting chips? Just buy a CIS with 'read-only' chips and be done with it . . . unless you are changing ink types frequently . . . they are available from so many people these days . . . http://inkjetgoodies.com (Camel and 'NoMoreCarts'), http://mediastreet.com (Niagra), http://inkjetart.com (Inkjet Artery), and others . . .
