Jim: Thanks very much for the info on refill cartridges vs. CIS.

At the end of your message, you mention that even though CIS in the
long run costs less than refilling cartridges, there are still
reasons to go with refills.  Would you elaborate further?  

Also, how many times can you refill a cartridge before you need to 
discard it and buy a new one?

Thanks,
--Peter Klein
