Re: [Digital BW] Alternatives to ink cartridges (CIS vs CFS)

2004-05-13 by Sam McCandless

For several years I've had a No More Carts' CIS 
on each of two 1160s, one with a MIS quadtone ink 
set (Sepia - Neutral) and the other with the 
Media Street Gen4 CMYK ink set (except that I 
substitute the MIS VM K for the MediaStreet Gen4 
[25 percent dye] K).

One NMC CIS came from InkJetArt and the other 
from MediaStreet. Each gave me good service, and 
so has each CIS. I haven't had any experience to 
speak of with either firm's service/support. 
Neither NMC CIS has ever required anything other 
than installation and re-filling and, in the case 
of one of them, replacement of the velcro 
attachment of the plastic arm which supports the 
tubes. I am a big fan of NMC and its CIS.
