MIS VM and, with luck, soon a version of the MIS FS inks that I'll be
working on in a couple of weeks.

You don't need them.  The ink from the new cart will flush out the old ink.
As long as the old ink is Epson compatible (not Lyson), you're OK.

MIS thinks the 1270 is important for quads.  It's apparently readily
available and most want to have their color inks in the newer printer -- the
1280.

Since MIS is sending me an old 870, I'll be working on a compatible machine
soon.  So, if you are patient, there should be some alternatives for that
machine soon.
