Re: Alternatives to ink cartridges (CIS vs CFS)

2004-05-08 by richard_h95050

Hi Arthur,

Hands down, I'd say to go with MIS. Why? Customer service for one -- 
MIS really understands CFS and is there to help you keep it running; 
they sell all the parts to keep their system working long-term, and 
they will generally replace anything that fails when it shouldn't.

Then of course, there's price. Take a peek at the new pricing from 
MIS on the 1160 CFS -- it's great! The new UT inksets are available 
for the 1160, and I personally use the UT-FSN with both curve-based 
workflows and the R9/PiezographyBW software. Results are great!

Since I have both systems (nomorecarts and MIS) - that's my opinion 
based on my experience with both the designs and the vendors.

Hope this helps...

 -Richard
