Thanks for the quick reply Roger,

I guess its a bit early to think about the canon printer.  I have always
liked canon products, but dye inks just won't do it. I can't understand why
canon is so far behind epson in black and white print technology.
I need the CIS, as I print a lot of prints, and $66 for a cartridge set is
ridiculous. Same would go for anything cone put out. His inks were way over
priced, and probably will continue to be. I've had great with MIS VM inks,
and I'm sure their new Ultrachrome replacement inks will be a great product.
It should begin shipping this month. Ever notice how ordinary Higgins Black
India Ink is only about $8 per pint?  I know its not usable in printers, but
the inkjet inks shouldn't be more than about 3 times that much. Cone's $80
for four ounces is really way out of line. That's $320 per pint for ink!
