I'm looking at various options for B&W, and still can't make up my mind. If
the MIS inks were available from a UK supplier life would be easier. Do you
know if the Fotospeed Ultra II inks are the same as from MIS? I want to try
out a single cartridge first, but Fotospeed here only sell it for a CIS.

I looked at Permajets products at the Focus exhibition in the UK last week,
but there was no mention of new VT Blax inks. They are another option I'm
considering. How are the new inks, when announced, improved? The current VT
Blax was being demo'd on a 1290s as I use, I was tempted then to buy a
starter pack, but indecision took over.
