Are the MIS/InkSupply.com CFS bottles different from the NoMoreCarts.com CIS bottles? I ask because I think I remember that I started using MIS VM Sepia-Neutral inks in an 1160 at least a little before Frank did. But in a NMC's CIS, not in MIS's CFS. And I have no caking at all above the ink lines, not even for the black, which has been re-filled more and I think is the only one of the four inks on which I've ever had a nozzle check with gaps. And not many at that. This past September I was away for three weeks and got perfect nozzle checks on returning (both on my S-N 1160 and on my Gen4 1160, on which there's also a CIS). From Jim Hayes' and others' posts, I think I know there are CIS/CFS design differences, but I'd assumed they were using the same plastic, even mostly the same parts probably. Maybe not. Most of us now call this inkset simply (MIS VM) "Sepia", but it is the one originally called "Sepia-Neutral" isn't it?
