Re: [Digital BW] Epson Stylus Color 900 + MIS Quadtone inks

filling virgin carts is a bit intimidating if you read about it, but it's actually 
pretty easy in practice--and the additional investment compared to 
buying filled carts is small (I did it for a 740, and found that re-filling is a 
bit harder than filling virgins)
