Re: HELP: CFS for 890

2004-06-17 by Bob Michaels

MIS has changed the bracket since they made my 1280 CFS. Mine is only
about 1" wide (now long) and worked on either a 1280 or 890 by
locating it differently. It appears your new bracket allows you to
close the lid. I just took my lid off and put it in the closet several
years ago. 

It appears you've found the photo of the 890 bracket on the MIS site
at http://www.inksupply.com/index.cfm?source=html/cfs_890_new.html 
Also one of the 1280 bracket at
http://www.inksupply.com/index.cfm?source=html/cfs_1280_new.html

I bet they sent you the 1280 bracket but you could easily make it into
the 890 one with a hacksaw. The length certainly is not critical
unless it's too long as it appears yours is.
