CIS more reliable than carts in general?

2002-09-16 by thronxx

Hello all,

I have a new Epson 1280, checks out fine. I want to set it up for 
B/W, but have heard that both MIS and Cone are having problems with 
the 1280 carts. I don't need the problem, especially if it's 
avoidable.

Generally speaking, and referring specifically to my 1280, will a 
CIS perform better than a cart? I was under the impression that a 
CIS system is a bottle and tube running to what is functionally a 
cart at the printhead anyway.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I'd like to keep my hair-
pulling (whatever's left) to a minimum.

Cheers, Jeffrey Fass
