Bruce,

FS-K and FSN-K are the same.

I would buy a new cart when you change inks in a CIS.

  The very mixed reports on the PiezoTone inks are of great concern.

  I am about to set up a CIS with the MIS FSN-K and PiezoTone CMY on an
  1160. I also have some regular FS-K--is that the same formulation as
  the black ink in FSN? I'm thinking of swapping out the PiezoTone Warm
  Neutral black for the regular FS black on another 1160 that already
  has the PT inks installed. Can I just replace the bottles and let the
  change happen over time, or do I need a new cart and flushing of the
  tubing?

  Paul? Martin?

  Bruce
