I agree. I made my own on 3 Epson 1270s with MIS parts and Epson carts
with poppets. No problems. The only thing I changed is the way the lines
come off of the cartridge. I copied NoMoreCarts design instead and used
acrylic to hold the tubing on the cartridges. The tubing flows much
better this way with fewer problems. I also prefer the NoMoreCarts
tubing if you can get it. It is much more flexible and not so stiff. It
is made by Tygon (R-3603) and is laboratory grade tubing.

Hallo,
only if you clean Epson carts - you will have poppet valves!
I have three own built 1290 CIS - I only bought the parts from MIS.
On one of them I used Epson used carts - the best and least 
troublesome!
The least troublesome of all - is my two Epson 3000, with emptied, 
cleaned carts - then refilled with inks.

All works, and in all this talking about what "CIS" system to buy, I 
would like to use the dry words of Ed Hamrick,

"Any will do!"

Add to that here - "They are all quite simple - don't worry!"
