Digital BW, The Print

Peter, who are these "many" people who can't get high quality results
with MIS VM, Cone, and Mediastreet inks and the papers of their choice? 
I've never had a problem, except when I was brand new to digital
printing and didn't know what I was doing yet. You will ALWAYS get an
occasional clog, no matter WHOSE ink you use.

I don't see how a flush cartridge could ruin a printer, most of them are
just ammonia and water, which is what the epson repair people use.

This would be illegal to ban the use of third party inks. If they could
PROVE that the third party inks damaged your printer, they probably
wouldn't have to repair it under warranty.  And I do imagine there are
some very bad inksets on the market.  But MIS and Cone, and MediaStreet
make very high quality inks and they are used by tens of thousands of
printers without any problems.

If this is a flush cartridge, I'd like to know how that was done!
