Digital BW, The Print

Nick,

I have a CIS on my 1200 that I got from ConeTech which I believe was 
the same as NoMoreCarts and a NoMoreCarts CIS on my 1280. No 
irreversible modifications to the printer.

Only one problem on the 1200. The adhesive that holds Velcro tape for 
the support arm to the printer is coming loose and letting the arm 
sag. Should be easy to correct. The new system came with alcohol 
wipes to clean the attachment point on the printer. If that had been 
available for the 1200 set up I think I would have been okay.

No experience with the MIS system.

Martin
