J,

Could you give us some more information on your current problems. The
Septone inks are made for the seven ink printers, 2200, 7600 and 9600. So I
assume you are running the Sundance cartridges from bwguy.com in a 2200.
Exactly what kind of problems are you having? These inks and software are
very new to the market and you must be one of the first people trying them.

In general I have gotten smoother operation using CIS with my 1200 and 1280
printers in terms of fewer nozzle check problems but that is the only
advantage I have seen other than the huge cost savings over cartridges.
