Re: [Digital BW] New MIS UltraTone and CIS

2003-03-15 by Barry Kelsall

You can pull off the tubing, wash it out, & reuse it on new carts with a
CIS. I believe instructions come with the replacement carts. I highly
recommend latex gloves be worn when doing this messy procedure. I've done it
& vacuum-filled the new carts successfully.

Or you could buy new carts with new tubing attached from MIS & use it with
your CIS hardware. You might have to buy new bottle caps from MIS or enlarge
the holes in your existing bottle caps to allow for the thicker MIS tubing.

> I am very interested in Paul's new UltraTone inkset recently posted on
MIS's website. According to MIS, if using a CIS the cartridges should be
replaced with new ones because you can never get the old ink out of the
sponge material inside the cartridge. I am using a nomorecarts unit on my
Epson 1160 and was wondering if anyone has actually switched old cartridges
for new? Does one simply pull the lines off with fingers? Will the vacuum
seal inherent in these units still be good enough to reload the new
cartridges as directed?
