A very interesting post, Lincoln, thank you.

I've been sitting on a fence across the pond for some months now with 
a 1290 purchased for dedicating to B&W and with the continuous flow 
UT set in mind, basically for matt papers but clogging issues, why 
MIS still has its caveat emptor, pondering switching to cartridge in 
the K position with either a photo or dual purpose black.  I am a bit 
worried about switching K positions because of sensitivity to 
clogging with Eboni.  

I would appreciate accounts of your experiences as most users seem to 
be sticking with the cart option.  If you can spare a print showing 
what you have been able to achieve, and are prepared to contact me 
off-list, I will send you my son's US address for we will be meeting 
in the UK over Christmas.
