Actually Paul,

It was your interesting recommendation for using the quad FS inkset with a 1280 that motivated me to give the ole' 2000P one more chance. I have ordered a CIS from MIS and am going to try the B= 'B', C & M = 'C', LC & LM = 'M' , Y = 'Y'. Additionally, I have ordered the diluting solvent, as Yellow seems much lighter than the 27% density value that someone had spec'd for the FS yellow position ink....

I'll let you know the results. The only loss will be getting the 1280 chips and the reprogramming of the chip Full box if I am forced to get a 1280...

( I tried the VM carts perhaps 9 months ago with less than ideal results. )

Thanks,
Alex
